Thursday's Dream Schemes/Colorway Challenge Lavender and Gray

This week we are using Pam Hornschu's colorway of lavender and gray! Hooray!! I had fun doing this card. I paste-embossed with the Regular Embossing Paste (DEP). It has just a bit of a "tooth" (or roughness) to it and you can stencil onto it beautifully. It is also the fastest drying embossing paste and dries in about 25 minutes. I stenciled the leaves with gray pigment ink. Then stenciled the flowers with Brilliance Inks of Lavender, Orchid and Purple as seen in purple Tsukineko tri-color pad called Twilight. The main stencil is the Serendipity flower (LG709) and while it was drying then the Happy Birthday (LM248) was paste embossed with the Silver Embossing Paste (DSP) onto a purple plaid ribbon, I paste-embossed this on the ribbon first and then applied it with double stick mounting tape to the card later. I used a silver Krylon pen to make my three inch embellishment pin silver and when I placed it I tucked it under the flower card.

I am presently traveling in eastern Oregon and will be home at the end of the week, but we are hoping that you can join us and play along. Thank you for your nice comments the last few weeks and follow the Dream Team's names on the side bar at the right to see what they have posted in lavender and gray this Thursday.
