Happy Saturday.
This morning at Splitcoast, we are being inspired by the beautiful photography from the
Crystal Gayle Studio on Etsy.
Here is the photo that inspired my card:
I again used my embossing folder to create the background using green Distress inks.
To see how go here:
When my background was dry, I inked the wheat stamp from Hero Arts with black Memento ink and stamped to the side. Did the same with the sentiment from Rubbernecker.
Easy and quick card...love that sentiment.
Sending you a hug for a Happy Valentine's Day.

My goodness girl! I have to try using my folders in this way too. I am so loving every card you make with the concept. These look like they make up quick and easy too. My kind of card making for sure. Love the colors on this one.
What a gorgeous card and background! Thanks for the links to the instructions for this technique -- love how simple it is and using some of my sadly neglected embossing folders.
The EF technique you use really does make for a wonderful bg. And this is a really fab take on the sketch. Thanks for joining us at ATSM
