Over at Can you handle the pressure Blog the challenge is embossing with a twist of adding a Sentiment as your focal. This stamp and die set makes a great focal for a sentiment. Of course I also had to add a flower ;) I cut the sentiment and flower out of the same piece of background I had made using Oxide inks.
The embossing folder was given to me by April, I used Tim Holtz paper and sanded it a bit, I need to get a better sanding piece, mine doesn't seem to work as well.
I am also sharing with Simon Says Challenge anything goes.
- Parklane - Embossing folder (JoAnn)
- Distress Oxide background to cut out the flower and sentiments
- Jillibean Soup - Enjoy stamp and die set JB1287
- Spellbinders - Be Bold Blooms dies
I hope you all enjoy your holiday weekend. We have a rain chance almost everyday but seems to be in the evenings so not a wash out.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie
