How about this little Funky number?  You are either going to love it or hate it.  I actually love it.  🙂  But I find the pieces that I really, really love, nobody else does, lol. 

On a personal note, thank you to all of you that gave me advice regarding my dog Lucas and his anxiety attacks.  I read every comment and e-mail and so appreciate that you took the time to help me out.  Lucas thanks you too.  🙂

Cut a 3″ square of Whisper White card stock on the diagonal to get two triangles.

Using a Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement, stamped the Tree from the Thoughts & Prayers Set using Metallic Gold ink. 

Heat embossed the image using clear embossing powder and a heat gun.

Using the left over triangle, masked the middle of the triangle with the tree on it.

Sponged Sahara Sand ink on the edges holding the triangle mask in place.

Removed the mask and used two post it notes to mask the Sahara Sand ink I just put on the edges.  Sponged Tempting Turquoise ink in the unmasked area.

Sponged Brilliant Blue ink at the top of the unmasked area.

Removed the masks and wiped the ink off of the embossed image with a cotton rage.

Used the Circles #2 Die Cut and my Big Shot Machine to cut the largest circle out of Apricot Appeal card stock.

Using the Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement, stamped the medallion from the Boho Backgrounds stamp set in the middle of the circle using Pumpkin Pie ink.

Sponged Pumpkin Pie ink on the edges.

Sponged Summer Sun ink in the middle of the circle to brighten things up.

Using a Ruler drew a line from the points on the medallion to the edge using a Pumpkin Pie marker.

Sponged  a bit of Elegant Eggplant ink on.

Sponged Tempting Turquoise ink on a 5″ square piece of Whisper White card stock.

Adhered the circle and triangle to the panel and sponged Elegant Eggplant ink around the outside of the panel, not covering all of the Tempting Turquoise ink.  I awanted the middle images to have a glowing effect.

Sponged Basic Black ink around the outside edges.

Stamped The Flower Flourish from the Stampin’ Up! Vintage Vogue set (love this image) using metallic Gold ink.

Using a Metallic Gold Paint Marker, edged the panel.

Added a Brilliant Blue Panel and here is the finished card measuring 5.5″ Square.

May your day be extremely bright and cheerful.  🙂

Until my next post.  . . .  . . . . . . . . ..
