A big congrats to Carlene, our newest Featured Stamper! Her gallery is beautiful & she always leaves the sweetest comments! I chose THIS to case. I love the sun ray embossing so I kept that, but I used different colors, different die cut bg & made mine an Easter card.
For my Easter card, I first die cut & embossed the sunburst bg. Then I stamped the greeting w/ Versacolor indigo pigment ink then heat embossed it w/ pastel embossing powder. The embossing powder lightens the ink color & gives it a slight metallic sheen. For the lilies, I put the image into my Misti, stamped it w/ sky blue ink, lightly colored w/ Copics, over stamped w/ the same indigo ink & embossed w/ the same powder. Then I did quite a bit of fussy cutting on them.
Congrats again, Carlene! Thanks so much for looking. Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

A wonderful case Julie, and full marks for fussy cutting today! I adore the rays embossing folders and dies, but can't find them! Mind you I have a craft fair in London in April and my crafting mentor is coming over from Spain for the event ... so ...

Ooh WoW I noticed all those ray quilted backgrounds she has done and thought I love those and this texture is so perfect like that. I love how it gives those pretty Lilies such a brilliant POP
