Altenew October 2023 Inspiration Challenge

I loved these colors and was inspired to make a card to enter this challenge. 

As you can see these are the Altenew inks that I used for this card.  My stamp, stencil and die set that I used is Esplanade Flowers!

The background embossing folder is Altenew 3D Floating Foliage. After embossing the white panel, I lightly sponged Forest Glade ink over the raised parts. 

This sentiment is also from the same stamp set and set with black ink and clear embossing powder on Vellum. I could not resist adding a few green gems from my stash.  

Don't forget the inside! For this one I fussy cut a foliage image sponged with ink and added it to the bottom. A few score lines completed. it 

I am entering this card in the Altenew October 2023 Inspiration Challenge.

 I am entering this card in the Can you handle the Pressure with a twist of bees or beehives.
