I followed the sketch from the current CAS(E) This Sketch Challenge #17:
I used the pretty Muse Challenge #6 cue card made by Deanna Jean for inspiration, following the flower and leaf layout above the sentiment.
I love my Hero Arts shadow block stamps (oldies but goodies!) and immediately thought of this one when I saw the sketch. I used the stamp "kissing" technique to add the envelope pattern to the shadow blocks.
Materials Used:
Stamps: Hero Arts "Irregular Background Blocks," "Envelope Pattern,"
"Blossom Art," "Birthday Messages"
"Blossom Art," "Birthday Messages"
Inks: Hero Arts Poppy chalk in, black dye ink, VersaMark and black embossing powder
Other: black gems, patterned papers, corner rounder
So, that's it for today. As always, thanks for stopping by...I do appreciate your visit!
