Dear Ones~
There's a new challenge over at Can You Handle the Pressure. For this challenge blog you MUST use an EMBOSSING FOLDER
on your project. Heat embossing (with embossing powder) is permitted but only IN ADDITION to your embossing folder design. Each new challenge will have a
'TWIST' which is optional ... your choice to use or not.
The OPTIONAL TWIST for today's challenge is:
BUTTERFLIES
Here's my card:
I am using some items that are in Gina K's new kit for the month of June called Vintage Summer. The images in the kit are lovely, I'm really enjoying using it. I embossed the background with the GKD Petite Flourish embossing folder, rubbed a Versamark pad across the raised part, and then used gold embossing powder for this pretty look. The butterfly was stamped with Versamark onto some Crafter's Companion patterned paper and gold heat embossed too. I think it's so pretty.
Here is a close up of the butterfly. The photo really doesn't do the detail justice, it's a gorgeous stamp.
The Ingredients:
GKD White Card Stock
GKD Petite Flourish Embossing Folder
GKD Gold Embossing Powder
Tim Holtz Gold metallic Card Stock
GKD Master Layouts 12
GKD Vintage Summer Stamp
Crafter's Companion Ink Drops Vivid Patterned Paper
Trinity Stamps Gold Baubles
