Stempel Spass

I have not played at Little Tangles in a while - there is just so many challenges I can play in....but I  fairly recently got several of their beautiful stamp sets and they are begging me to use them ;) I used the stamp set - On the Edge that I just inked up with the challenge colors and stamped at different levels - I like the effect of the different color depths and shading.

The sentiment is from the Papertrey Happy Trails set. I added 3 dots of liquid pearls. I am going to work on my second card now...
