AAA Cards - "A Favorite Technique"
Here's my card:
Rather than just one favourite technique, I included two - smooshing with Oxide inks and heat embossing.
I stamped and heat embossed my flower image in white, then smooshed with Faded Jeans, Blueprint Sketch, and Broken China, drying between each layer.
I then trimmed the panel, added a few sequins, stamped and heat embossed my sentiment on a vellum strip, and mounted the panel on fun foam on a linen cs base.
nice combo of two fab technigues. Thank you for playing at AAA cards
ReplyDeleteI love the layering of blues in the background and the pretty embossed wild flowers! The sentiment on the vellum lets that background show beautifully!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful background from your blue oxides, Susan! Your patience drying between layers paid off. Love the wild flower silhouette you chose for your focal. Your sequins are the perfect final touch. This one is not only gorgeous it looks so fun to make too.
ReplyDeleteFabulous background with those oxides and loving he colours. The white heat embossing looks wonderful against it x
ReplyDeleteTwo fabulous techniques and a super card. Thanks for playing along with the favourite technique challenge at AAA Cards.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful watery blue background you created Susan - your white embossed florals look lovely against it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Susan, and two great techniques. Love the smooshed background in shades of blue. Lots of visual texture. Beautiful white flowers. The vellum banner is a great way to show off that gorgeous background. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful smooshed layers of blue and the heat-embossed white flowers, Susan! Using the three shades of blue worked great for the smooshed background - it's simple enough as a background and yet it has depth. Hideko xx
