The picture is absolutely beautiful, but when I look at just the colors I see Halloween...haha!! I did refrain from making a Halloween card though and used the emboss resist technique with a design I learned from Laura Bassen to create a starburst pattern with masking.
I started by embossing with white, Catherine Pooler's background stamp called Rondi's Window and then using 2 strips of post it paper to mask off triangles using Royal Treatment, Mandarin Spice (CP inks) & Smoky Slate (SU!) inks to create the starburst. I trimmed this layer down and added to a white card base, and then added my layered circles with the sentiment and the sweet little mouse from MFT's It's A Mice Time To Celebrate!
A few purple rhinestones and some white baker's twine finished off my fun little card!

Great way to use the colors Marcia. Love how you masked off the sections and did the triangles over the white embossing. That mouse image is so cute. Great card.
Have a wonderful day.
