For the Bloggers Challenge this week, list Mom LISA challenged us to Embossing. Here is what I created:
This is for all of my Bloggers Challenge acquaintances.....! I found this fabulous image and sentiment at Create with TLC digi's and had to have them! I made the background with a Technique Junkies technique called Texture Plate Smoosh using Mustard, Pumpkin and Ruby Red inks. I only have one more sheet of Ruby Red cardstock.....: ( which is sad- I love Ruby Red! I also did the 'Out of the box' technique with her hat.
I water colored the image and added a touch of Copic highlights for the skin and handbag. I dragged the edge of the image and the sentiment in the Versamark pad, and then gold embossing powder.
So your majesty, what are you going to do today??? I am at work!
