Challenge card


I decided to create a card using a cute digital image from here. The sentiment that I stamped was from my monthly SP&Company stamp kit and it is called "Sympathy and Care". I thought it went perfectly with this image. I decided to emboss the sentiment because there is a challenge going on here which calls for embossing. I like how it makes the sentiment stand out on my card. I used some Mustard Seed distress ink to ink around the edges of the digital image. I cut around the digital image using a Spellbinders labels die. I colored in the image with my Copic markers. I used some yellow ribbon from my stash to tie around the card behind the image. The patterned papers I used were from the Echo Park -"This and That"-Charming collection from my monthly SP&Company kit. I used some clouds that I punched out of a paper scrap using my Fiskars cloud squeeze punch. Thanks for looking.

  3. Great embossing! I've only tried heat embossing 1x and it didn't look very good. Maybe I should revisit...I do love how it looks. Love the yellow papers and the image is great.

    Be blessed, Beckie
