Hi Everyone,
I’m taking a bit of a break from Christmas this week and definitely not using WHITE!!! I know…..but when I saw this sketch….I had a vision and here it is.
Here is the sketch……
…and my interpretation or vision hehe!!!
I just don’t use this image enough and wanted to make a card with some Oriental Flair. I hope I accomplished it.
The sketch this week called for a square and I cut the base of the Card (Black) to 5 x 10. The Red Mat is 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 and embossed the the Baroque Motif Stamp Set using Versamark and Black Embossing Powder. Don’t forget to use your embossing Buddy!!! The next Horizontal Piece is embossed as well and is black cut to 1- 5/8 x 4 and the gold is cut to 2-1/8 x 3 and embossed gold on gold (love that)! The circle is a 3” circle and stamped with Black Stazon using the Geisha from Dream Garden s. I then used my Versamarker and did the swan and embossed again in gold. Just a few flowers in red with my Real Red Marker and finished it off by taking my Versamark pad and swiping the edges of the circle and embossing in gold. I popped everything up with Dimensionals, in fact I added double stacks of Dimensionals to the center of the image to give it a dome like look and single Dimensionals to the edges. Lets not forget the exquisite Black Satin Ribbon either…..that was the frosting on the cake!!!
Hope you like it….don’t forget to visit the other Operators, I just know you’ll be wowed with the talent!!
Thanks for stopping in….
