I've been cleaning off my desktop and clearing out my computer files in preparation for filing our taxes, and I came across this card I made just before going to my StampNation collaboration retreat. It's one of my favorite cards from 2015, but I don't think I ever got a chance to share it. I'm not sure if it is the soft way the colors blended in the background, the glittery-ness & sparkle added or the pretty script on the sentiment. Probably all 3 combined.
Whatever the reason, I love this card, and wanted to share it with you. To create the background I sponged on inks starting with yellow and moving on to my pinks. Then I used a stencil to add a layer of white embossing paste. Before the paste dried I sprinkled on some glitter and shook off the excess.

That IS a pretty card, and I don't even like pink and can say that!
This is beautiful I love the background and colors, so pretty with the white embossing.
