i finally tried the technique rebecca challenged us to try (on the great mdw blog). i had this idea in my head that i did not want to do it all one color so i painted in one color and embossed in another color rather that clear embossing powder. it looks pretty sloppy and not very cute, but i think i am gonna just deal with it, make it cute somehow and make a book about me. so that is my ode to rebecca the awesome artist who always comes up with the cutest little touches that just make a project stand out. she has a great class coming up at mdw, the cutest father's day book you will ever see anywhere, ever. it is so great. you must check it out here http://www.mydaughterswish.com/calendar.php
and here is my prima embossed chipboard album cover painted in kaiser kraft candy paint (thanks daniela, did you know i used your paint on saturday night?) and ranger stream colored embossing powder, oh yeah and the chipboard letters are heidi swapp. 
looks a little crazy doesn't it? well, it is an upside down u for an n and i think it does look pretty weird but like i said, i am just gonna deal with and make it cute someway or another. i will post it again after i cute it up. someone please, post a challenge to finish whatever project we started with becky's technique challenge!

This is way too cool nanc.... I love the reflective color of the blue on the pink.... great job!
I love these two colors together.. my fav girl! Great job at the challenge!
that candy paint looks awesome!! glad you tried the technique...I want to try it this week!
I didn't even notice the upside down u as an n! I think this will look spectacular when you are done with it - you're off to a great start!
Nanc, this is so cool. I love the colors you picked. I also like the "unfinished-ness" about it.
I am sure you will nanci it up with a few choice embellishments and it will be singing!
just discovered your blog. Love your writing!
