Seems I'm in a purple mood today with two embossed cards ... really I'm rather tired as I spent a few hours in the garden this morning; repotting and deleafing mango leaves that just smother the plants.
My first card featured an embossed background (unknown), lightly smooched edges. A stitched die cut rectangle (cut from matt metallic perfume packaging) for a window effect, with die cut flowers (Sizzix - Wildflower Stems #1) watercoloured with Distress Inks and added some tiny purple micro beads. Finished with a stamped sentiment... the photo doesn't show the sparkles. I'm joining in the Seize the Birthday challenge #279 - Anything Goes.
For my second card I embossed a smooched background from my stash (Cuttlebug - Victoria) then swipped with Versamark and white embossing powder. Stamped my sentiment (Inspired by Stamping - Aster set) on a die cut stitched rectangle and added a single stamped flower to finish. I am playing along with Word Power challenge #3
Thanks for stopping by my blog
Have a Wonderful Day
Cheers Robyn
What lovely embossed cards. I really like the effect on the second one. I am glad you are boing inspired. Did you get my email about your CCC card? It arrived on 18th. That was quick xx
