Just me and my embossing folders and Distress inks here today playing again. I am looking at my embossing folders in a new way these days! This was an easy one. Inked the embossing folder with Distress inks- Salty Ocean, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint; sprayed with water and pressed my paper into the wet ink. I had masked the sides so the image was contained to the middle area. When dry, I added the sentiment and doodled a border. Mounted it onto the blue then pop dotted that onto the white card front.
Adding my card to these challenges:
CAS-ual Fridays- THREES (see the dots)
Less is More- COLOUR CHALLENGE
Simon Says- ANYTHING GOES
Challenges 4 Everybody-ANYTHING GOES

Supplies: stamp- Michaels dollar bin/ Distress inks/ Provo eb folder/ pop dots/ enamel dot/ blackline pen
