Hello everyone! I don't have many embossing folders, but I love the texture they give to cards. I tend to go through phases with the art supplies I play with - for a long time, I was obsessed with my Gel Plate and made HUNDREDS of prints... and then I did the same thing with alcohol inks & Yupo paper... and then I did the same thing with Oxide & Distress Inks on watercolor paper. LOL I just LOVE making backgrounds! Which is nice because I always have a stash of backgrounds that I can dig through to help inspire me but when I'm looking for something particular, I can just create it! I love that.
I would like to enter the card below into the following challenges:
The Flower Challenge #100 - Add Circles
(my circles are the little postmarks in the stamp!)
Try it on Tuesday - For a Lady
SSS Wednesday - It's a Stitch Up (real or faux stitching)
I used the Checkered Scallops embossing folder from Spellbinders after stamping my image onto it (Garden Daisies from Woodware Craft Collection) and spot-coloring with a Yellow Copic marker (Y06). The Happy Birthday stamp is from the Birthday Your Way II set from Papertrey Ink, stamped with Versafine Black, embossed with clear embossing powder and die-cut with a postage stamp die from the Nested Postage Labels & Tag Dies from Spellbinders. I attached it with foam dimensional tape to make it pop off the card. Peace.
I like your stamp with the words and flowers together! And your sentiment resemebles Donna's definition greeting. I think the angled stamped portion goes well with your embossed portion, too. Thanks so much for playing at Time Out!
