The main panel evolved after a series of trials and tribulations. My original intention was to individually color the circles using the challenge colors. But that didn't give me a clear, consistent impression, so I decided to white emboss and sponge over the top with the challenge colors. Once that was done, I thought the edges looked blank so I clear embossed over the top. Finally I stamped one of the images from Clockworks over the top of all of that, using Midnight Muse. Here's a closer view of the main layer:
I used last week's sketch at Friday Mashup for the layout. The sentiment is from Grunge Rock and I scored around the banner.
I think this will make a good birthday card for my oldest son, who will be 15 in December.
Thanks for looking.

The colors and technique are great on the first picture, then I saw the extra depth on the second picture - fantastic!!
I love the colors sponged together (I also sponged on my card). I really like the embossing as well! Great job! Thanks so much for joining us at Fab Friday.
I have been admiring this card as I peruse galleries and blogs-I tried to come up with a card for this color challenge, but nothing compared to yours; wonderful card!
LOVE this!!!
Great technique to use with these colors! I really like how you combined the clear and white embossing powders. I also like the scoring on the banner! Thanks for sharing with us at Fab Friday!
