Long time no post..sorry! Wasn't keeping well..I was down with severe back spasms, couldn't cook, couldn't sit, couldn't sleep properly. Still on meds, but feeling a bit better...back to exercises when the pain is gone..
Since I was feeling better, decided what better way to cheer myself than make a card!
So here it is, its with the sketch for the FTL-98 and CAS-75 (use dry embossing) and CAS-tastic Challenge (its SIMPLE). My card uses, Stamped Images, Inked edges and Embossing.
I've had the Fiskar's texture plates since 2 yrs, but really don't like the results. But still decided to break it out once again and enjoy a bit of embossing!
I've also had this beautiful Tiffany blue color paper, so decided to use it. And this cute stamp? Its being used for the first time on a card in 2 yrs! I've inked it up and sent images to many friends..but never used it myself...I think they're finally happy now..
This is the sketch on which I based my card, I was supposed to keep the black panel a single piece, but while watching CSI I ended up trimming them into 3! Kinda forgot the track of the sketch!
Colored using water-color pencils, my usual signo white gel pen and sharipe ultra fine black marker for the faux stitching.
Should be back again soon with a card for Simplicity challenge! Working on that soon.
On a gleeful note, I just won two stamp sets! One from Lizzie Ann Designs and one from Annabelle Stamps (Australia)
Just a closeup of the naughty chicks!
