300 Weeks of Inspiration Challenge

I have been a huge fan of Kara Vrabel's Friday Inspiration File for years!
Each week, Kara shares cards that have inspired her by pinning them
and this past week, she celebrated her 300th Friday Inspiration File.
I've been very inspired by the cards that Kara has pinned 
and have been thrilled to see my creations featured a time or two in The File!

To celebrate her 300th Friday Inspiration File, Kara is challenging us to go through The File
find a project and use it to spark our creativity.

I was inspired by Betsy Veldman's card that Kara shared in Week #297:


I pulled out a PTI set that I haven't used in years to make my card --
Mehndi Medallion:


I stamped my images in Versamark on watercolour paper and heat embossed them in white.
Then, I coloured over them with my Zig Clean Colour Real Brush Markers and a water brush.


I stamped my sentiment (from PTI's Tropics) on a strip of black cardstock
and heat embossed it in white.
I adhered it to my card using dimensional adhesive.

Thanks for looking!

I love this card, it has beautiful colors, Leigh! I also have the Mehndi set and use it from time to time. I've embossed, used pearl powders, and stamped with it, must try watercolor or Copics. Your card is great.
