Hello Friends, thanks for stopping by today!
We have a new challenge starting today over on our new Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge Blog and the TWIST theme is 'POPPIES'.
Remember, the twist is optional
but you MUST use an embossing folder on our projects to qualify for the
prize. Heat embossing is also permitted but only in conjunction with
an embossing folder.
Here's what I've created to inspire you today.
The embossing folder I'm using today is one from Nellie's Choice and the Poppy stamp is an old stamp by Stampin' Up. After embossing my white card stock panel, I carefully stamped by image as it actually has two leaves and a longer stem which I didn't want to run into the embossing. Coloring was done using Tombow markers and after adhering my panel to my red card base, I did some faux stitching to finish it off. Very happy with the outcome and this card could have a variety of sentiments added ... depending on the need.
I do hope you'll come check out our new blog and play along.
AND yep ... we will be offering prizes at our challenges ... that's always a fun surprise!
Here's today's prize offering . . .
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
I appreciate it more than you'll ever know!!
As always . . .
