I embossed Glorious Bouquet in Ranger Princess Gold embossing powder for the background, and blended with Shaded Lilac Distress ink. I also embossed the Bursts in gold and edged with Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide. I don't own this stamp yet, but Autumn's friend let us use hers when we had some wonderful crafty time together last spring. I didn't have my Stamp Platform with me, so my impression is less than perfect. The Bursts are a wonderful save and hide my imperfection!
Garden Greens, Wildflowers and Wildflowers #2 Thinlits die cuts were colored with oxides and some gold embossed. The lace from my stash was dyed with Shaded Lilac oxide, and the sentiment is a Small Talk sticker is also inked with oxide.
I splattered the background with watered down ink and layered the panel over a Frayed Burlap ink edged panel of textured card from my stash. I die cut and snipped a few Skeleton Leaves in white card for some relief from all that gold and lavender.
That's all from me for today; perhaps for a while. The local news is warning our power may be out for weeks if this hurricane upgrades to a Cat 4 and passes over Wilmington NC as predicted. Please keep the east coast of USA in your prayers. I'm just so thankful it's not predicted to hit Florida, where my Mom lives.
Hugs and Blessings!
