Two - In - One


No, it's not toothpaste, nor golf...its the new digi provided for the Designed2Delight challenge and its sister challenge, "Emboss It" at Double Delight. Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol were used to colour the image. The background mat is embossed, inked with gold metallic and then distressed with black ink. A Martha Stewart punch around was used for the black cardstock, the first time I have used it on a card.

The orange and yellow found in the image are again repeated in the flower and ribbon, and have been added to the sentiment. The same brads which hold the image in place are used for the flower centre.

Other challenges entered:
...Cas-tastic Challenges - CWC012 - It's Simple
....The Crazy Challenge - It's Hip to be Square
.....Paper Sundaes - #26 Lots of Layers
......Practical Scrapper - Embossing
