Faux layering

Welcome to this weeks challenge with the CCEE Stampers team.

Many of you do fabulously wonderful fancy fold cards, which is not my thing. So today I am going to challenge you to make a true one layer card….no layers, no pop-ups, no embellishments. All your work must be on the base layer. Embossing is fine, of course.

I am so glad that I could use embossing for this challenge. The card looks dimensional but it is truly one layer. LOL I started with black embossing the frame, masked it and stamped in the sentiment and embossed it. I then masked that also and sponged in the background ink. I then stamped the flowers and used water to lift of most of the ink inside the stamped image. I then highlighted parts with copic pens and added some sparkle with a glitter pen.

Supplies:

Altenew Geo frames stamp, Wplus9 - Kind soul, Paper Inspriations sentiment from 2006

Blacke embossing powder, wink of stella - clear brush Distress ink Broken china, copic pens
