I have been off the blogging scene for a while now but I would like to work my way back. I have a serious backlog of cards to post. I think I will post every other day for a while to clear out my cards. I hope you enjoy them!
I used a couple of older techniques on this card. The first one was making my own background paper using the Veramark inkpad. It’s a great way to stamp images on paper using an “clear” ink that give you the look of a watermark.
Close up of front of card.
This card uses an old technique of torn edges with the Rococo Rose paper layered in between background paper made with stamps from the Tasteful Touches stamp set. This close up gives you a great look at the sentiment on the die cut with the nice stitching around the edge.
Angle shot.
The angle shot shows off the dimension in the card with the added embellishments. It also gives you a sneak peak at the surprise inside.
Inside of card.
I always try to make sure that there is something inside the card that pulls from the front of the card. Sometimes it’s stamp and sometimes it’s coordinated paper.
