This is my card for today's challenge. Debossing.
For those of you that are folk artists,,,it's done like reverse glass painting. I used black Stazon for the design on the front of the vellum. Then used my SU markers and blender pen to do a water color wash on the back. AFTER I finished painting I then used the stylus to highlight the areas I wanted to stand out. I backed the vellum design with a white CS or you could actually have backed it with gold leaf like on reverse glass. The window in the card was cut with the largest nestabilities scalloped circle.
I sandwiched this to the front of the card and backed it with a patterned paper on the inside. I used a gold metallic sharpie to highlight the scalloped window.
Add the springy lavender ribbon for another nice Easter card.

I LOVE IT!!! Beautiful, darling - just perfect. Love the image and your coloring is wonderful. And thanks for all the great details. I'll have to try my gold paint pen on inside edges - really is very effective. Thanks for playing!
