Just a Note


Happy Saturday.  This morning I am being inspired by the challenge at Splitcoast from The World Market site and this beautiful scarf.



Once again I inked up my houndstooth embossing folder with Distress inks (Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, Salty Ocean), sprayed with water and then pressed my paper into the wet ink.  The water helps the colours to blend for a great impression.  The camera and the sentiment were from a small dollar bin set I found at Michaels with no name on them.  The camera is stamped in black Memento ink, cut out then pop dotted on the card front.

I am adding my card to these challenges:
Less is More- 3 COLOURS


Simon Says- ANYTHING GOES


Keep it Simple- WATERCOLOUR



Moxie Fab- HIP ON HANDWRITING CHALLENGE


Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Supplies:  stamps; Michaels/ eb folder/ Distress ink/ mini mister/ pop dots

I need to figure out how you are using these embossing folders. This is another beautiful example of your technique!
