For this first card, I stamped the image on shimmery white paper with Versafine Onyx Black ink, and embossed with detail fine black embossing folder.  I colored the image with Stampin' Up! markers.  After coloring, I cut the image out with an Oval Nestability.  Before removing from the Nestability, I sponged with pale yellow ink.  I sponged a little bit of black ink on the edge.  I embossed the background with a Cuttlebug folder and matted with black.  I added some sheer black ribbon.  The sentiment is from Repeat Impressions and is stamped with Old Olive ink.

For this second card, i stamped the image on white cardstock and embossed with detail gold embossing powder.  I colored it with watercolor pencils and a paintbrush and did some sponging with gray and yellow in.  I sponged Versamark on the edges, and also the edges of the blue matting, and embossed with gold embossing powder.  The patterned paper is from a Sizzix pad.  I added some yellow dots with a sponge dauber.  The sentiment is from Repeat Impressions and is embossed in gold.


Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
