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.
ReplyDeleteI'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!
ReplyDeleteI 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.

ReplyDeletenow THAT is old school cool! I love how this looks - the coloured & embossed image on the text paper is stunning!
ReplyDeleteHave 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
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! Do you think the embossing gets better with the light box vs. using the die cut machines?
