When I saw this color combination over at the Curtain Call Color Challenge
this week, I just knew I wanted to play along. Nothing like waiting until
the last minute....the challenge is due here soon!
I don't have these SU colors so I substituted PTI colors for this one. They came out
pretty close I think!
I had fun with a new embossing folder I found called Oriental Weave.
It makes such a nice deep embossing.
I also did some sponging while my Nestie circle was in place......haven't done that
before but will certainly try it again! What a nice effect!
I also used the 2S4Y sketch by Kazan again.....it's just so versatile!
I'm serious.....Love this sketch!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Amy this is the perfect embossing folder it really feels like the texture of the blue in the photo. I ADORE the Life set and use it all the time ..... although I lost the wee flower I have to reorder that one. This is a true beauty!!!
