Dry Embossing
This is a card, not my usual choice of shape, using the sketch from Card Patterns #37. I love the clean simplicity of these sketches. For this card I used some freebie paper from a magazine, which I found just matched one shade of my Core'dinations stack. The semi-circular piece is the reverse side of the patterned piece which I embossed with Cuttlebug random dots. The flower I embossed by hand from a brass stencil and sanded once it had been cut out. The sentiment is a Cuttlebug die-cut!
There She Goes Blog has a challenge for Dry Embossing this week, so this is for that one too!

Love the clean and simple take on the sketch this week and the monochromatic tones.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, beautiful colour. You have reminded me that I have lots of brass stencils languishing in a box somewhere, I must dig them out :o)

I love the clean lines on your cards! What is the name of the cuttlebug die you've taken the "thanks" from ?

Thanks for the lovely comment. The die comes from an A2 Duo Combo set called With Gratitude.

Thanks Chrissie! I just went out and bought that set.
ReplyDeleteAnd what about the flowers you have used in the card inspired by your landing curtains ?

The flowers are from another Cuttlebug die. It's a 6"x2" die which came in a set of 2 I believe. If you look through a few sites I'm sure you'll find it!
