This week's colour combo was a good challenge for me. Take a look:
I have inked up my new Hello, Doily stamp that I received for Christmas (it's great having crafty friends who know just what to get me!). I used Versamark ink to stamp the image on Pink Pirouette cardstock, then melted clear embossing powder over the ink, to give a subtle, shadowy look.
Once the card was assembled, I spritzed it with Frost White shimmer spray:
Stamps: Hello, Doily; Itty Bitty Banners
Card: Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede
DSP: River Rock Patterns Designer Series Paper
Ink: Versamark inkpad, Pink Pirouette stampin' pad and marker, Soft Suede stampin' pad and marker, River Rock stampin' pad
Other: Clear embossing powder, 1 1/4" and 7/8" Scallop Circle punches, Bitty Banners framelits, Fashionable Hearts embosslits, sponge daubers, Pink Pirouette taffeta ribbon, Finishing Touches edgelits, Twitterpated button (retired), glue dots, Frost White shimmer paint mixed with Isocol, Stampin' Distress Tool
Your card is beautiful Christine. I love the way you've used the Doily stamp. What a wonderful present! I'm sure they will be so happy they bought it for you when they see what you've created with it.
