Little Scrap Pieces challenge...

Hi there!  I regularly view this very talented lady's blog HERE.  Lisa creates the most beautiful pieces of art.  Her last blog post I viewed is a challenge at Little Scrap Pieces and the challenge is embossing- wet or dry.  I decided to join in on the fun!  Here's my card:
I wet embossed the SU! stamp image onto glossy cardstock with black ink and diamond embossing powder, and then used Tim Holtz alcohol ink and blending solution to dab on two pretty ink colors.  The card is dry embossed with a flower print folder (You need to enlarge the photo to even see it, I think) and then using the same colors and technique, applied alcohol ink to it.  The image is matted onto black glitter core'dinations cardstock and then onto vellum.  A little hemp cord and some bling and viola!  done.  I think it came out pretty.  I don't use my alcohol inks nearly enough.  Every time I do, I think I should more often.  lol!
