RIC #10

This week's Runway Inspired Challenge:

Well- wow! Interesting colour choice, textures - a lot going on here that I would not have thought to put all together. But that's what makes these things challenges right? Otherwise they'd be called Walks in the Park (I may start one of those! LOL!)

Here's the first one  I came up with:

After that, I wanted to further explore the technique I used last week for my 'butterfly bracelet card'. I love how it looks like cloisonne (Chinese enamel pottery) and thought that the colours would be perfect for a fall-ish card.

I used silver and gold embossing powder and I love how the stickles seem to melt into the blended colouring on the leaves. And, lest you think that the gold and silver circles are important design elements, they're not. They're covering smudges. I choose to call these frustrating situations (smudges on a clean white card) design opportunities!. How do you deal with design opportunities?
