The Paper Players #186


The Card Concept 5

Used a dreamweaver stencil and inked in the tree. Inked in the birds and message w/ the expresso.
 This is very CAS.

{Freshly Made} #126 & Virginia's View Challenge #1

Used a Dreamweavers stencil and inked in each dot with a dauber on watercolor paper.
Then I spritzed for the watercolor effect and dried it with my heat tool.

The Paper Players Challenge #185

I used the big daubers to ink up the embossing folder and then I lightly spritzed the ink
and put the card stock in and ran through my machine.  Then I tried to sand off all the ink
on the words but think I need a stronger sandpaper.  Background is randomly stamped flowers.
I think this is more Spring-y than my distress one.   And the rain is gone.

the card Concept 4

Floral theme this week for the card concept..... that I just discovered.
Amazing design team over there.  Stamps and dies from Papertrey Ink.
My style.....clean, simple...not really sure.

{Freshly Made} Sketches #125

Lots of shadow on my picture as it's rainy and gloomy here in So.Cal.  No sun today.

The Paper Players Challenge #185

Used the craft core paper and sanded after embossing.  Added a touch of "spring" on the side.
Here in California it's turned winter thus the distressed look of my card.  LOL
