With the exception of the sentiment, this card is SUO - something I haven't done in a long time! I started out with a piece of Very Vanilla and randomly sponged Soft Suede, Early Espresso and Cajun Craze over the panel, making sure to overlap the colors. I then flicked water onto the panel before running it through the Big Shot with the Tiny Triangles embossing folder.
I cut the panel into three sections and layered them onto another piece of Very Vanilla. The centre panel is popped up on foam tape to add a bit more interest. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and was stamped in Soft Suede and also run through with the same embossing folder. And that's it!
Thanks for visiting.

Wow Karren your background sponging looks terrific - love the mix of colours. Great card and I too am pinning it :)
Such a beautiful graphic card, Karren. Love it!
This is a great card with many ways to use it. I for one will CASE it and teach it in one of my classes. I love the layout too. This technique is new to me so thanks for sharing.
Those background panels are stunning, those colours blend together beautifully, and the card is wonderfully put together. Thanks for sharing at Colour Me...!

Love your card this week Karren; your panel blends this week's colours beautifully and the added embossed texture and the water droplets add further interest. Gorgeous! Thanks for joining us over at Colour Me...! this week.
Love this card. The panel is very lovely - simple but still a lot of interest when looked at close and those colours are perfect for this type of card.
Very pretty! Love these colors!

Love the colours, love the splatters, love the embossing, love the bold sentiment! Great card, Karren! Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week. :)
I didn't notice the embossing when I first looked, but it gives your panels that extra bit of oomph! Love how you've combined these challenges - you've rocked them both!
Gorgeous colors - and what a great look on the embossed background!
