Hello!

There is a beautiful inspiration at Runway Inspired Challenge this week.

I loved the layers of dark and light colors, and thought Painted Flowers would work perfectly for this look.

I stamped the flowers in Close to My Heart’s Honey and Goldrush inks. Originally I had planned to emboss the outlines in white, but it so happens that I don’t have any white embossing powder at the moment, so I used gold. You will notice some inky smudges in the background, that wasn’t done to cover a mistake. When I realized that I didn’t have any white embossing powder, I started stamping in white pigment ink. The outlines showed over the flower, but not beyond it. I thought if I sponged some ink, maybe somehow, the pigment ink will show through! (I wasn’t thinking clearly). Spare time is so hard to come these days, that I wasn’t willing to start over, so I embossed the outlines in gold.

This week’s sponsor is Ellen Hutson, and the winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to her store.
