Shades of Blue Challenge Greeting Card

Hello!  Today's card is for a challenge over at Less is More to use shades of blue.

After playing with multiple shades of blue and staining my fingers to match, I finally decided on a base of Brilliant Blue, Images and border circles in Baja Breeze, Brilliant Blue, and Night of Navy (shown in the photo from left to right).
 I stamped the sentiment in Brilliant Blue and punched it in a large oval. and continued the embossing onto the punch to continue the flow.
 The stamped images measure 1 1/4" circle and the border circles measure 1 1/2"

 Here is a close up of the sentiment.


Thanks for looking!
