Embossing Resist

I saw this card and really loved the look of it so I decided to case it. I used my Hero Arts Circle Doily stamp and clear embosssed it with versamark ink. I then used Ranger distress inks--3 of them--and sponged them on the card. I stamped the sentiment and cut it out with spellbinders. I inked the chipboard brackets and then glitzed them up with some glitter.



Hope you like it!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

I hope all of you are enjoying St. Patrick's day.

It's been rather low key at work, but some actually remembered to wear green. I however, totally forgot, as I opted to wear the outfit that required no ironing versus the green shirt that did. Oh well, at least I made a card for the occassion.

I am joining Waltzingmouse Stamps on their blog hop. Check out Claire's site for all the details. You can find the links to all the participants in the forum (you'll have to register first, but it's easy).

I created a card using the digital image that Claire provided last week. I stamped it twice on copic paper and then I colored it with my copics. I cut out one image using the oval nestabilities, and I cut out two little shamrocks on the other image. I used those shamrocks on pop dots to add dimension to my card. I also used my scalloped oval nestabilities to provide a frame for the image. I used ribbon to embellish and voila! Card created.



I really like the patterned paper--and I'll have to update this post later with the company name as I can't remember right now. The patterned paper sure adds to the overall feel of the card.


Be sure to check out the other stamps that Claire creates. Her work is lovely. I am a big fan--I've got a number of sets, and I know I'll be getting more. I particularly like the stamps that work with spellbinder nestabilities. What a great addition to my collection.

Feel free to follow my blog--if I get enough followers I'm thinking of giving away some blog candy.

Have a great hop!

Challenge

This is my entry for the challenge at the CPS site. It's a 5.75 square card--I love that size.

I used the new Justrite stampers set that I won on a blog, and created this card. I used Doodlebug sugar on the two outer circles, and I used my copic markers to color the flowers. My circle nestabilities came in handy to cut it all out.
