Sharing a card I made using a technique shared by Betsy over at PTI. The latest MIM #130 is about striped embossing...a fun and easy technique!
stamps- Papertrey Ink- Stylish Holiday sentiments, year of flowers
This card is my 5th attempt, my earlier 4 cards are in the recycle bin! I tried Betsy's technique of using post-it's for masking, but every single time the sticky residue from the post-it's attracted stray embossing pdr!. Finally I stamped using versamark and poured the three different colors of pdr..silver, bronze and gold without masking..and ..prayed!
I stamped the poinsettia and colored in loosely.
here is a closer look.......
Also sharing with Simon Says Stamp- Emboss it
and Moxie Fab World-all that glitters is gold challenge.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
This is such a beauty :) love the smudged look of water colors :)
ReplyDeleteSanketi, I tune in to see a magnificent watercolor, and am never disappointed! Love the richness of this with the embossing!
ReplyDeleteThis is so dreamy...I wish I was as talented as you! And the embossing is perfect (must try that technique myself). Can't believe its your fifth try!
ReplyDeleteThe embossing is great, but it is the background painting/inking that I really love!

Oh Sanketi! Another masterpiece here! The muted water-coloring is so beautiful. I like your technique of embossing much better than trying to duplicate Betsy's...I had a few recycle bin cards from this one too.
