Hello and thank for joining us. Excuse the pictures in today's post. I took them at night so they aren't the best!
I'm back today with another card on the theme of embossing. This time it is a sentiment and a failed attempt at partial embossing that I managed to salvage (but only just) lol.
I used the fabulous blooms fill-in die from Concord and 9th for the main body of the card. I used various coloured inks from Altenew to stamp the flowers. I then tried to add Versamark just to the centres and dotted areas of the flowers, and the small leaf branches.
I did this with a Versamark pen but when I added the embossing powder and heat set it, it looked really bad! It didn't make the statement I wanted so I ended up adding gold liquid pearls over the top of the flowers but I couldn't do anything about the leaves. Luckily it doesn't show up too much ;)
The sentiment is a long strip stamp from Simon Says Stamp. I embossed it with gold powder and cut into three smaller sections. I wanted something a little different and I think this works. What do you think?
See you again on Friday. TTFN Jude xx
