Wonderful sketch today! And I couldn't resist the OCC Challenge to use our favorite colors. These are my favorite colors. Greens, teals. This also goes along w/ the DD green challenges this month.
I just rec'd these wonderful images today from Betsy at Innovative Stamp Creations. Aren't they wonderful? And there are more! These are from Nature's Silhouettes I & II.
I stamped the the images w/ white pigment ink and embossed w/ white ep on white c/s. I did the out of the box Nestie tech (Tutorial HERE). Then I brayered over w/ the kpad. Since it had already been dry embossed around the edge w/ the Nestie, the brayer skipped right over the embossed line and left the white border just like I hoped it would.
The monogram greeting was stamped w/ a circle around it then I used the Nestie circles on it and the layers. The butterfly was cut out and popped up.
I used a border punch down both sides of the vertical lime panel and attached 3 strips of ribbon on top. Then layered on white and teal. Everything's attached to a white card.
Thanks so much for looking!
