As I've mentioned, I'm lagging behind on making our Christmas cards. So...that's my focus for a couple of days.
The challenge at
Lily Pad Cards (this one is a month long challenge) is a technique challenge. And, it happens to be a technique that I love...emboss resist. Yes! You can click on the
THIS link for all of the details.
Here is my take on the challenge ~
I pulled out a piece of patterned paper that I've had for a while. It's called Orchestra (by 7 gypsies). I embossed the snowflakes with white EP. Then I started sponging with Wild Honey and Fired Brick distress inks. Then, I sponged some of the Fired Brick along all four edges of the panel. After stamping my sentiment on the white panel, I sponged those edges with the Wild Honey. A few pearls and a big bow finished off my card. This was a fun and easy card to make. If you haven't tried this technique yet...you might just want to. It's fun!
What do you think?
Thanks for taking a look!
