Today's post is for the Just Add Ink Sketch Challenge, Paper Crafting Journey #23 - Embossing and The Play Date Cafe Colour Challenge this week. The colours are rich and dramatic. I used Copper embossing powder for the flowers and leaves and then softened the focal point by using metallic paper, spritzing with water and colouring with re-inkers. The colours blend together nicely and dry with a sheen and softness.
This card was awarded an "Honourable Mention" at Just Add Ink this week.
