I have mostly used the butterfly image from this Key to Joy set, and decided to play with the large collage stamp this time. I embossed the image in clear before sponging it with distress inks, and when those were dry, some iridescent medium for a little extra sparkle. The sentiment is embossed in gold and edged in gold ink. With all this embossing, I'm entering this in the current challenge at Playing in Paradise.
