In the month of December I have several birthday cards to make and one anniversary. Fortunately I have finished my Christmas cards so today I am starting one of eight birthday cards to make.
When I use techniques that require sponging onto paper I clean the sponge or dauber onto a blank piece of paper and then recycle it as it makes for a great background. This background piece is an example and it is watercolor paper and I have no idea what colors were used. I chose a Unity stamp set and inked with Versafine and heat embossed. I chose black cs for the mat and then decided I liked pink for the base paper. I inked and embossed the sentiment, added some bling and some pink/white baker's twine. One card down and seven to go.
Stamp Set - Unity "...wish with your heart"
Paper - SU! Regal Rose, Black and watercolor paper
Inks - Versafine, unknown
Other - Black crystals (JoAnn's), Baker's twine Queen, mounting tape
This is lovely! The softly sponged background really shows off the embossed flowers. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches!
