Twofer Cards today

Haven't dug into my patterned papers too often of late... but I've put together a card featuring

  'polka dots' for the Just Add Ink challenge #786.  

Combined two green shades of paper and a strip of polka dot embossed card as a background for my stamped, watercoloured and fussy cut flower... finished off with a stamped sentiment strip.


Then I had a play around with my Distress Oxide ink pads  -  swiping the whole pad across the white card - fossilized amber top to bottom, then crushed olive bottom up, followed by peeled paint ---  I like the 'wispy' effect achieved.  Then I used the same inks to swipe card and die cut some foliage and finished with a stamped and clear embossed sentiment.   Joining in the technique challenge over at Group of Cardmakers - Direct to Paper Inking

Thanks for stopping by my blog, have a wonderful day, Cheers Robyn

Here's my latest crochet creation....  a floral wall hanging
