Today's post is for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge this week. I embossed the Image with White Embossing Powder and coloured it with Perfect Pearls and my Aqua Painter. I set the Perfect Pearls with a light spray of Hairspray. Love the effect of the Perfect Pearls on the Night of Navy card, the colour is so intense and shiny. I matted the main image with Whisper White to make it stand out from the rest of the card and mounted it on Dimensionals. I dry embossed the Night of Navy background and then coloured the dots with my Signo Gel Pen to carry the star theme through a bit more.
This card was awarded a Perfect Princess Award this week at Freshly Made Sketches.

Wow, Susan. I am a big fan of blues and you really showed them off on this one. You did a perfect job with your heat embossing; mine never comes out that clean. Just really love it! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches and sharing your beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteI love the hint of color in the buildings to offset the beautiful blues! This is lovely!
