Good morning, a new challenge begins today at Fab'n' Funky.
The theme chosen by our lovely N-Eva is
EMBOSSING- WET or DRY.
I haven't used my Lavinia stamps for a while so I thought it was time to give them an airing. I stamped some leaves across the top of a square of white card using Versamark ink and then embossed with white EP, then did the same along the bottom edge using a buttercup stamp. I sponged Distress inks in shades of red, orange and purple around the edges of the square fading out towards the centre which is lightly sponged in yellow. I stamped more leaves and some grasses using purple Versafine Clair and the fairy image in black, her wings are coloured with Distress Ink , details and highlights added with sparkle and white gel pens. A stamped sentiment (also Lavinia) and a few clear gems to finish.
For more inspiration please check out the Challenge blog, as always the ladies have produced some fabulous cards.
Thanks for visiting.
