Hello everyone! Welcome back for a fun challenge at Picture Perfect Creations. As many of you know, we usually have a color challenge for you all but this week, being the third Monday of the month, we've got a specialty challenge and it's one that ANYONE can participate in. :) We want to see your embossing - and you can decide if you want to use heat or dry or both!
I love this week's color combo over at The Play Date Cafe - so calming... I decided to use Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede, a bit of Kraft and Basic Grey:
The sketch is from Friday Sketchers:
Stamps: Accent Notes (Verve) Paper: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Baja Breeze, SU! DSP Ink: Soft Suede, Baja Breeze Accessories: Perfect Polkas Dots embossing folder, Plum Blossom #1 embossing folder, twine, hat pin and beads & flowers (Pretties kit), paper piercer, Kraft tag die cut, Basic Grey satin ribbon, circle punch
I found this awesome rolled flower tutorial awhile ago and LOVE how the flowers turn out but I don't use hot glue for mine. I use a little square of double sided sticky paper (Sookwang/Be Creative) and stick it to a piece of cardstock and then use my circle punch to punch out the base of the flower.
Thanks for stopping by - I hope you will have time to play along with us this week at Picture Perfect Creations. Be sure to stop and see how the other PPC Creators integrated the embossing challenge into their cards. See you again soon!
