The floral image on my card today was made with a brass stencil. I embossed a piece of text dsp on a light box, using a stylus with the stencil. Once the embossed image was visible, I colored it with some SU! Blendabilities and Copics. I added a snippet of long-retired SU! ribbon, a mat made of early espresso cardstock and a Hero Arts sentiment. The card base is very vanilla.
Thanks for stopping by today and make it a great Wednesday!

I really love the way this one turned out Carol. I don't have the patience to use the light box to emboss. My hat is off to you, your patience, and of course your talent. I always love it when you make your flat bows this way. This card is really special. Have a fun day.
I'm off to visit the doctor's office that I worked at now. I haven't seen them for 4 months now and I miss them all a lot.
Love it! I haven't used the bass stencils in so long and really think I either have this one or one similar. Love the background and the precious bow.

Great idea and lovely card!! The text looks great with the stenciled embossed flowers!
I love this Carol, you did a great job with the hand embossing. I never found that easy to do using a brass stencil. The lovely yellow flowers look nice and cheery, and I like the sentiment stamp.

This is an awesome card Carol and I am in love with it!!! I have a light box, don't think I've ever used it! Me bad!!! I love how you have used your brass stencil and I love how you have colored these blooms. Love the book paper, that always catches my attention. Hugs, Brenda
I love, love, LOVE the way these yellow flowers look on the text printed paper. Fabulous job!
Great card, Carol...I really like the embossed flower. This is a fabulous technique on the newsprint.
I have a light box but never think touse it. Your flower is lovely. Hugs Mrs A.
What a cool effect...very 3D!
Wow! Carol, this is so beautiful. I haven't used my brass stencils and light box in a long time. I really like that flower over the text dsp. You did big!!! I love it.
Wow - this is amazing Carol!!!!! I love how this came out and want that stencil! BEAUTIFUL work! Lovely coloring too. Hugz
now THAT is old school cool! I love how this looks - the coloured & embossed image on the text paper is stunning!
Have a ton of these brass stencils, and thanks for the inspiration to go hunt them out. Love the embossing over the text paper. You're a genius! Really pretty with the coloring on the sunflowers. Love this one, Miss Carol. TFS & Hugs
This looks great! Do you think the embossing gets better with the light box vs. using the die cut machines?
