Kissing technique

Just a quick post as I want to meet the deadline over at Color Throwdown which closes in an hour or so.


I used yellow ink on the solid stamp and used the "kissing" technique with purple ink for the script as well as the layers of the roses.
I embossed just a strip of the paper, added purple and green splatter with a brush and some yellow pearls. Sentiment stamped with purple ink.


This card is for:
TIME OUT Challenges - #82 Flowers with the optional twist of Kissing
Color Throwdown - #440
CAS(E) This Sketch! - #219

    Love the idea about embossing only a stripe of the base, it's very effective! It makes your CAS so interesting and matches very well with the splatter and these particulary roses! I think your card has been enought quick, but has a great look! Well done!
