Yippee skippy joy joy! I got a lovely box of goodies from Stampin' Up! yesterday (seriously, it's like Christmas!) and couldn't wait to try them all out. The first thing I was into was my new heat tool and all the things I needed to have my first go at heat embossing. All I can say is "WOW!" Talk about fun! So I decided to use my goodies to enter my first Inkspirations Challenge. Here's the sketch:
As my friends know, I'm usually a pinky-girly girl, so every now and then I like to use colours I don't use much. Like now!
For the butterfly silhouette, I used the Bliss set and white-embossed on Whisper White. Then I sponged on Bashful Blue and used my new colour spritzer tool to splat Night of Navy over the butterfly. When it was completely dry, I used a tissue to wipe the ink off the butterfly. I couldn't resist a little bit of bling - a rhinestone jewel.
RECIPE:
Card stock - Bashful Blue, Night of Navy (and patterns stack), Whisper White, Rose Red
Stamps - Bliss
Ink - Versamark, Bashful Blue, Night of Navy
Other stuff - Scallop border punch, embossing equipment, rhinestone jewel, colour spritzer, Beautiful Wings die
This is lovely Ali and I really like the colours. I love the emboss resist technique and you have done a fabulous job of this. I am going to CASE it if you don't mind!!
