The stamps I used are from the Elusive images wild meadow theme plate, on a background of stream, twilight denim and aubergine Adirondack inks. I used Sheena's wow embossing powders, and I have to say I'm impressed! Here is a close-up of the shimmer and shine!
I also sprayed it with iridescent gold glimmer mist. I added a few embossed lines with my score-pal and a waltzing mouse sentiment (I think that should be a bit lower looking at it now).
I was delighted to receive an email from Chrissie this morning telling me that my card from last week has been showCASed. I am over the moon! I get to display this lovely badge now.

These are really interesting tiles Sally, fabulous colours and beautiful textures... Individual little works of art.
I agree with you about the positioning of the sentiment. The old acetate trick works well for siting a sentiment!
Thanks for another great submission.
See you next week!

Saw this IRL this morning, and it's even more beautiful than it looks in the photo. x
lovely card with great colours!!
What beautiful squares!! Looks like a lot of work too! I love the scored lines. The card is beautiful!! I think you're right about the sentiment. I stamped my sentiment on a transparency and then laid it over the card before I decided where to put it. Works really well for me.
Love the backgrounds you made, and the embossing is gorgeous. Congratulations on getting your card from last week showcased.

Lovely card. The tiles are fantastic. Another technique still to try out and not enough hours in the day
Gorgeous, gorgeous card. Those tiles are just Wow. I love the colours you have used and those wow powders look great. Hugs x ChrisB
I love the background that you have made - fabulous colours. I love that stamp too but for some reason have never got round to buying it. I also agree with you that the sentiment might have looked even better a bit lower.

Stunning, the shimmer is so pretty and I like how you added the embossed details, thanks for sharing xxx
Making your own background papers is something i really enjoy doing; your colour choice would have been mine too as these colours work so well together.
Great to see the WOW embossing powders as not seen them except on C&C, they look scrumptious!
A fantastic entry for this weeks challenge and well done for being showcased last week!!! :-)
