One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Colour Q # 292

Because there is an extension in this Colour Q challenge I was able to post this card.
The technique for this card was from Julie Ebersol over at The Classroom.
she showed how to do a special and partial die cutting.
I love this and it was really easy, go check it out on the blog.

I used a nestabilities circle die and the dies from PTI Bitty Bouquets.
The sentiment was embossed with Ranger pink embossing powder which is so pretty and so easy to
emboss, it is yummy!  And I love the color, it really looks more like Berry Sorbet  which is the color I used for the strawberry slush.
The background was sponged on with distress inks with the same yellow, orange and aqua colors.
Thanks for taking a look!

Wow, this is a pretty card. I love the partial stamping. Haven't tried that yet, but it's on my to do list. (Which is getting out of hand).
