Lavender & Lime...

I'm taking the hint and putting this little piece in for 2 challenges:
This week's 4X4 Friday challenge is Lavender and Lime.
Create a 4x4 that uses any shade of these colors.
Double bonus :
Post to the 4x4 Challenge
and also The Play Date Cafe Challenge PDCC #38.
PDCC is offering a prize of a $14 gift certificate for Artistic Outpost! :)



So this is my 4X4... I started by heat embossing the images Clear on Glossy Cardstock, then rubbing 3 shades of purple and 2 of green on with sponges.
I then stamped over the images with Medium Grey Ink.
I wanted to get a sense of 'movement' with the dragon and butterflies.
Inked edges of the stamped square, then mounted it on 2 more inked-edge squares.
Stamps are all Stampin'Up!

"Be still, and know that I am God."
