Welcome to the weekend. I am playing along with the Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoast today. I want to show you the pillow that inspired me:
Here is what I did to create my card. I started by inking up my acrylic block with Distress inks, sprayed with water and then stamped the middle square. I masked that square then stamped around it using the same technique.
When it was dry, I added the hollyhocks and the sentiment embossed in white.
When it was dry, I added the hollyhocks and the sentiment embossed in white.
I am adding my card to the challenge at Moxie Fab...Make Your Own Background Paper and to the challenge at Addicted to CAS...Embossed.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
Supplies: stamps; Penny Black, ISC/ Distress inks/ acrylic block/ eb powder/ Memento black/ pearls

This is so striking and pretty, Karen. The square detail in the background is very clever.
