Hi everyone!! I'm so excited to be a guest designer today at Scrappin4funChallenges!! Thank you Rachelle for having me!! The theme for Challenge #17 is a fun one!! It's a technique challenge...masking, embossing, watercolor, tearing, weaving, quilling, folding, layering, collage, etc...
I chose to use several techniques for this card: stenciling with embossing paste and a stencil; embossing; inking and distressing.
The paper is from Authentique. The edges were distressed with a Zutter DIA and then inked with Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet Distress Ink. The banners are Taylored Expressions Banner Stacklets dies. A Tim Holtz Doily stencil was placed over the top banner and Wendy Vecchi Embossing Paste was used through the stencil. Once the paste dried, TH Distress Inks in Spun Sugar and Victorian Velvet were sponged over the design and then wiped off the embossing paste with a baby wipe.
A Spellbinders Standard Circles Small was cut with heavyweight cardstock and then embossed with a Cuttlebug Script Embossing folder. The beautiful butterfly is a Memory Box die and it was covered with Doodlebug Designs Sugar Coating. The banner is a Spellbinders Ribbon Banners die. It was inked with TH Victorian Velvet. Heartfelt Thanks is from the Craftin Desert Divas Simply Said stamp set. The gems are Prima Say It In Crystals.
The inside was decorated to resemble the front of the card. So Grateful is also from CDD's Simply Said stamp set.
