Kesnija used gold spray to unite her gold-embossed sentiment and her pretty pink stenciled frame.
Maura used white embossing and three fab colors to create depth and interest on her lovely card. I also like how the black flower spills out onto the white.

Kimberly used such vivid color and white embossing to make this dramatic and pretty card. I love how the color bleeds up into the white.
Grá claims she made a mistake stamping her flowers, but she rescued it perfectly. Note the most excellent background, which she added freehand.

Heather's Details
It is impressive how Maura's few blended colours give the forest such depth.
Lee Ann has created a dramatic image by placing contrasting colours side by side with a thin but bold black line to divide them.

Claire's beautifully blended and layered circles almost look as though they are floating across the the white background.
