Ilove this card. I love the bees, the Wink of Stella, the embellishment. It's just nice.

Gold and Pink Beauty

1498098631565393130106

Love the powder pink and gold combo.  The sentiment is from Eastern Beauty - one of the curved ones but because it is photopolymer it can be shaped into something that nearly resembles a straight line.

Colour Challenge 3

1498210136887474717334
So for this colour challenge one of my ladies chose garden green, old olive and pacific point. I wanted to use Lovely as a Tree which was one of my first purchases - still in the old clam case and after a couple of attempts, this is the finished card. 
This card ended up having a few techniques, masking, sponging, pouncing on the inked stamp with a garden green marker before stamping and using the window sheet to create the reflection. 
I work with the husband of one of my card ladies who said he thought this was the nicest card his wife had made so far. He also said and I quote "some of the other cards were a bit lumpy" lol. So now we know that dimensionals make cards lumpy - official terminology now.
