Today's card uses the technique called Dye Whitewash from the August 2013 issue. I had a couple of friends over for a Friday stamp day and we decided to give this technique a try. I really love the subtle color that it gives to the image. While playing with the technique, we used my friend's white detail embossing powder.
Tonight as I finished the card up with a sentiment, I grabbed my white detail embossing powder. Who knew that White Detail embossing powder would have different whites. Sheesh! Mine is more "Off" white than real white. So.....what was I to do.....my sentiment was Off White and the image was White..... So, I decided to make the card base and the butterflies in off white as well so that it didn't look like a mistake. It worked out fairly well, making the image popping more from the card.
I hope that you like! The image is from Stampendous and the words are from Stampin Up...I think!
Lovely Ann...me and embossing powder do not mix, me and glitter do not mix either...LOL
