This week at Pause Dream Enjoy is to use 3 of something. I used 3 die cuts and 3 bling. The bling is made using pop dots and glitter.

The large background stamp is embossed with Clear powder on white paper and then Sponged over to add colors in the un-embossed parts. The horse and sentiment were embossed with Black powder on white paper. I die cut it out and sponged around the image. And my little charms are die cuts. I cut out and colored with Copics. Then pressed them into a Versa Mark pad and Embossed with Clear powder.
