Embossed Flowers


 When I made this card, I was thinking of the blackout embossing technique, however when I was doing some research, I found a site that instead of using the debossed side with black ink, they showed using the embossed side and colouring in the lower area with a black sharpie pen, so that the image really pops out. (This is not my idea, but I wasn't able to find the tutorial of the original idea again.) I embossed the flowers on a pink card and highlighted areas with ink. Then did the black areas and added some gold ink to where the stamens would be for some dimension. This technique should work with any type of embossing folder, but it does look great with the 3D ones.

Thanks for stopping by.

Make a wish Little Bunny


 I have had this card pack for a while. It is a paper toile kit that I had purchased at a craft show many years ago. I thought it would be great for my Grandson's 1st birthday. The pieces are precut so you just separate them and add foam tape for dimension.
