This is one card born from frustration. My first print I did from memory ... and my memory isn't what it used to be!!! I sponged on the two colors but forgot to do the stamping & embossing. I saved it for another day. Then I watched the video again & followed it exactly & the 2nd print did not pick up much color when I ran it through my cuttlebug. That will be another card. This is my 3rd try & I got this, but the matching print is also less than I expected. Yes, I will use it another day. Maybe even later today.
It was an interesting technique to do but it didn't seem to work well for me. So, what you see is what I got!!
Thanks for stopping by.

well, hey neighbor! That was you I heard screaming in frustration...grin!!! I feel you pain...I had my issues with
second gen too. I do love what you got on the third try.
Let's make a date to meet here again when we've mastered
what J McG makes look so simple.

Well, it looks pretty sweet to me, Karen. I like the water splatters you added....or maybe you didn't purposefully add them? I watched the video, but I was too busy doing other things today to make a card~

The original turned out great and while I know J Mc said you could use words too - aren't they backwards on the 2nd print? or is that a part that just kind of fades away . . . .

Ah, I like that you used not a background stamp but a feature stamp - it looks great. I'm encouraged to know that I am not the only one who struggled - but it was fun trying!
