This weeks Stamping 411 sketch (#146) looked like an easy one to do and a lot of fun. Well it was not so easy but it was fun. I have been working on this card for 2 days now and still can't seem to get it right but here it is any way. I used some of my new stuff - the new embossing folder from the summer mini catalog and my new destressing tool on the edges of the gold piece and the white focal piece of card stock. Then I had to try out my new gold Glow Smooch Spritz that is in the new summer mini catalog. This gold spray gives a lovely soft gold glitter to the white focal point. A little sponging on the edges and some paper pierching and voila - it is done. Card stock used: Brushed Gold, Rose Red and Black. I watercolored the flowers and dragon fly using my blender pens and Bodering Blue, Pretty in Pink, and Rose Red Classic ink pads.
