Alien dreams

I'm calling my tag Alien dreams.  I went into my stash and found that dream plate plus those square corners.  I've been stamping for over twenty years (phew! can you believe it?) and I learned something new.....yes, you can teach an old dog a new trick!  did you know you can emboss with archival inks?  I didn't till I read it on Studio 490
and Blog | Tim Holtz when I was reading about his March tag challenge.  This is my take on Tim Holtz's March tag.  He used a bunch of his paint dabbers but I only have a few so I used two of the colors I thought would go together.  He stamped a beautiful butterfly but I went in the other direction.....silly using an alien from dylusion monster mash stamp set.
entering in the following challenge:
1.  Tim Holtz blog - March tag
2.  Simon Says Wednesday challenge - anything goes
3.  Simon Monday challenge - a hint of clover (color green)
4.  That craft place challenge - anything goes
