Hi! I'm on my way out the door again - this time to go have dinner, so this will be short.I started this card several days ago, creating the background and then not having any kind of vision with regard to finishing it. Tonight, I figured it out, and I have to say, it's prettier in person than it is in the photograph. To create the background, I stamped with VersaMark, embossed with clear embossing powder, and then used a sponge to apply Heavenly Blue and Amethyst ink from my ink pads. The rest explains itself, I think.
Materials & Tools: White Daisy and Heavenly Blue cardstock; Heavenly Blue, Amethyst, and Crystal Blue ink pads; CTMH Be True and Papertrey Ink Mixed Messages stamp sets; Ribbon from Wal-Mart; Kaiser Kraft pearls; Martha Stewart Doily Lace Edger punch; CuttlebugVersaMark w/Butterfly Combo die and embossing folders; ink pad; Clear embossing powder; Embossing tool.
I hope you're having a great week. I'm done with work for the week! Yea! A three-day weekend is something I think I'll be able to handle. Stamping is definitely on the agenda, so count on hearing from me. In the interim, enjoy the evening, and thanks for stopping by!
