I was so happy to have my card included in the birthday celebration for Kim Kesti over at the Paper Crafts Connection blog. Happy Birthday, Kim! Thought I'd share one of the cards I made around the same time as the card featured over at PCC today:
For this card I used Distress Ink with water resist stamping. (the lines on the blue tag were done with that technique - love that Broken China Distress Ink!) I also did a a little heat embossing for the word "wish". The butterflies are also stamped - first colored with Distress Ink and the blending tool, then stamped with the same color:
materials: cardstock: Bazzill; patterned paper: Studio Calico; stamps: Unity; ink: Ranger; embossing powder: American Crafts; "1" Maya Road; die: Stampin' Up
Hope you are having a good week. Week 1 of back-to-school almost under out belts.
Haven't looked this forward to a day off in a long time. Don't even get me started on the rain - which has been almost non-stop since Tuesday. I think the weekend looks brighter. Have a great day!
