Threes

There's nothing I like more than a little emboss-resist inking and here is a card for a couple of challenges using this favourite technique of mine.
I used a flower stamp from Unity Stamps and inked with Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Distress inks. I over-stamped with a bunch of tiny blobby stamps to give a little interest to the background and shadow stamped the flowers using Worn Lipstick ink.
The sentiment is a part of a longer phrase masked so as to fit on my new Spellbinders Die D-Lites Fancy Label Tags One, die-cut.
The panels and mounts are cut using Dienamics Pierced Stax Squares.
I used the sketch from Clean and Simple  290
Casual Fridays want three things on a third of the card
I have three panels and three words!
This one is for CAS on Sunday where they need to see Sparkle and Shimmer!
I used this fabulous Indigo Blu butterfly embossed with WOW Vintage Peacock, sparkly embossing powder!
The sentiment is from Stampin' Up!
