In the Spotlight

I made a card and an ATC for a friend for her birthday : ) We are both in a group at RubberStampChat where we send an ATC to others on their Birthday- and we can also send a card.

  I used a SU set called Pleasant Poppies. I stamped the image, then cut out three ovals, then ran the entire set thru the Bigshot and embossed it. I cut out a plain white oval the next biggest die size, outlined it in colors to match. I finished off the card with twine and a sentiment from Create with TLC. 

 For the ATC, I used a Glue Distress background- love the color of the Distress ink with the Poppies.

 
  I dabbed dots of Elmers glue and let them dry, then added Distress ink over that.  I stamped the image again, and cut out flowers, as I did not like the look of all of the flowers dotted (from the background technique). I colored the flowers with Copics. The sentiment is shimmery...and again, from Create with TLC.
