Triple embossing

For this card I followed the sketch for Everybody Art challenge 42:

I prepared the chipboard flowers as follows:

Plain chipboard, swiped with versamark and heat embossed with pearl UTEE, twice
Stamped with Stazon blazing red using the Tim Holtz paisley stamp - this only left a very vague image
Heat embossed with clear UTEE and stamped into it while hot, using Funstamps paisley background stamp
Swiped over the shape and edges with Stazon blazing red

The papers are BG Infuse.

Cute Daisy May challenge atm is 'let's emboss', so I'm linking for that and for Net's 'cute card challenge' on CBC - and also for One Stop Craft challenge 32 'under pressure' (embossing).

This is also for Rosie's challenge 37 on Rosiedee: 'triple embossing'.

This week's challenge on Mixed Media Monday is 'layers', so I'm submitting this card there, as there are layers of UTEE.

I've just realised that the copics colouring is pants - I was so concentrating on the triple embossing that I didn't pay much attention to the colouring in - I'll try and put that right.

I have two more triple embossed chippie flowers to use on another project:
