Just Us Girls #505 - Trend Week

Angie is our host for Trend Week at Just Us Girls.  Her chosen trend is
I knew right away what I was going to do.  It's something that I did in an earlier challenge here -  just changed up a little.
First I colored some Bristol with Abandoned Coral Distress Ink, starting with straight to paper and then watercoloring it out to a lighter shade.  I placed the parts from Altenew's Garden Picks 3-D dies on the dried paper to get the various colors on the layers.  The leaves are from Gina K Moonlight Fog and what might be Midnight Green from SSS.  The background was glitter embossed with a stamp from The Stamp Market, barely visible which is what I wanted.

What stacking dies do you have in your stash?  We'd love for you to pull them out and make a card for our challenge.  Before you do, why not check and see what the Design Team and our guest designer Janet Ribet have for your inspiration on the blog.
