PDCC#83 and Color Throwdown - #142 challenges

I just wanted to do these colors.... you know how that is. I felt like doilies and lace would be such a juxtaposition with lime green, black and gray. And this card also works for a 2nd challenge over at the Play Date Cafe.
The color selection offered as inspiration.
The greeting is embossed while the rest of the card is stamped full strength, or stamped-off once for color depth.
I love it when the button falls right where it should, both on the scallop and the stamped image.... just luck!
