Engagement

My best friend's son has just got engaged to a lovely girl, so I wanted to create something special for them. Again using Vintage vogue flowers and a with a bit of distressing of some patterned paper the end result was not too bad. I embossed the back ground with "a french script" of which I stamped several times to cover the card and embosssed with clear embossing powder so as not to detract from the raised images
Sorry it is a bit hard to photograph. You can catch a glimpse of it in the 2nd photo.. I think that it turned out ok and I know Tina really loved it.

Happy Birthday Mum

I am getting into a little bit of experimenting. My recent craze at the moment is to emboss things. I love the effect this has when you mix it with regular stamping.

Here is a card I made my Mum for her birthday. I distressed the card with coloured chalk to give it the antique look. I used a roller stamp from stampin up to do the bottom edge using versamark and then embossed with black on the chocolate brown card to make it pop out. The flowers are from the vintage vogue collection. [This is such a versatile stampin set ] all topped off with a pretty ribbon.
