Hi all, back again as I'm in a crafting mood again after a tiring week with Christmas and work. I been wanting to submit another card for 'The Classroom'
Hero Arts Cling Stamp Challenge. I also want to give a new technique a try - double sponging with embossing as demonstrated by Rosemary on
Our Daily Bread Designs. I love this technique and will try it again, it's not as daunting as it looks! The trick is to pick the right colours and stamps! As stipulated by The Classroom, here is my card with the HA Clings I used. I also used the Runway Inspired Challenge #26 -
Bibhu Mohapatra's photo for inspiration. A Blog Named Hero just announced their new challenge for 2013 -
New Year, New You. As this is a new technique for me, it's a New Me done on New Year!
Thank you for dropping by and Happy New Year!
Ingredients:
Cardstock - Neenah Solar White, coloured card stock
Stamps - Hero Arts Lattice Background, Floral Framelits and Four Flowers
Ink - Versamark, Memento Paris Dusk, Tim Holtz Distress Inks - Peeled Paint, Peacock Feathers, Chipped Sapphire and Seedless Preserve
Others - Clear EP, ribbon, twine from Hemptique
