My name is Gail so for Dina's challenge I was in the G's. Glitter just isn't my thing but ghosting caught my eye. Unfortunately either my bg stamp is not completely clean or my Versamark pad is so grungy, that my Versamark stamping over the masked leaf imprint shows up kind of grey. I had done the chlorophyll imprinting a while ago. I pulled out my light table and some thin deli paper that I use for Gelli printing and traced the leaf. I then fussy cut and used removable glue dots to stick the mask over the leaf. Once the Versamark was set, I sponged the blues over the top. I appreciate the clean and simole sketch this week and decided to use it to complete my card.

Isn't it amazing how quickly Versamark gets grungy...when I get a new lad, I try to remember to use my older one for anything messy but it's never long till there's not much between them. I like the ghosting...it goes well with the softness of your printed leaf.

Awesome on so many levels! The leaf printing is fabulous. Love the ghosting effect. The script behind is excellent. Terrific use of the sketch! I have that same sentiment stamp and didn't think to use it. It fits nicely. Into my favs! TFS

So pretty and serene! Thanks for sharing your process too - glad you found something that wasn't GLITTER to work with. Ha! I so dreaded having to do that video. Thank you for playing along with my Falliday Fest challenge!
