Pink passion


Following on from my last post here is the second card I made using the Crafter's Companion 3D embossing folder Country Garden. 


As you see, completely different from the first. After I'd tried the Wedgewood effect previously shown, I tried inking the other side of the embossing folder. I didn't like the look nearly so much so I flipped the card and inked on this side. 

This pink beauty is made by inking with Picked Raspberries. I put the ink on heavily with the pad and then filled in with a sponge. When the pink was dry I sponged on Gold, again fairly heavily. 


I've used embossing, sponge inking, stamping, die cutting. I have stamped on the die cut edges but you can't really see it. 
I wanted something around the sentiment area so tried splatters. I didn't manage it very well, they are too uniform, I think and perhaps shouldn't be over the sentiment. At least I didn't ruin the card!

Again I'm linking to CAS MIx Up challenge:
