I die cut twice from a scrap of cardstock & spritzed one with Tattered Angels Caribbean Blue & the other with Meadow Green. The shimmery metallic is so beautiful! I also splattered them with Brushed Pewter Distress Stain to tie in with the leftover PFS Small Butterfly which I colored with Spellbinders silver metallic pen. There's a video in my IG post showing the shimmer & sparkle. The sentiment from a 2009 HA clear set was stamped in Versafine Clair Morning Mist a couple times on a white scrap & cut with a PTI flag die. Love the white on white background using HA Bold Graphic Confetti cover plate & the look of droplets from PTI Rainstones. I'm also entering SSS Wednesday & Snippets Playground.
I've participated in the CCC card exchange for many years. It's fun to send & receive cards from all over the world. Last month the optional color combo was 2 shades of blue plus gold. I made it 3 blues so I had 4 colors to stamp C&9 Botanical Turnabout stamp. The Hero Arts inks are Cornflower, Soft Sky & Soft Pool. I heat embossed the gold layer & added gold splatters. 
Gotta say, I really love this combo which I probably would never have come up with. I used dies that came with the set to make the gold embossed frame decorated with a bloom & leaves. Here's a close up to try & show the gold embossing. It looks like a different card, but it's not.
The Poppystamps sentiment was stacked with white, blue & a gold embossed layer. I found a stamp with the word "Friend" that I could trim for the sub-sentiment.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
