I really need to get my scanner fixed, the colors look so washed out. But I have to tell you this is such a pretty card in person. I dabbed the Lumiere on the background with Saran Wrap and then brayered over it with Pretty In Pink. I followed the Faux Mother Of Pearl tutorial here on SCS.

Oh, how sweet! I love the soft colors of this and the way they all blend. I've never tried the faux mother of pearl technique but I like the look; I'll go check it out. Very nice card.
