Simply Gorgeous!

on May 28th 2009

This card looks sooo much better in person – I am hoping that you can enjoy it – at least a little by the picture.  I can’t wait for the roses in my garden to look like this!  I love the Manhattan Flower embossing folder exclusively from Stampin’ Up!  Here I impressed it on shimmery white cardstock.  After that, I ran my craft white stamp pad over the top and then embossed the raised edges with white embossing powder.  Then you’ll do the unthinkable. . . spray the cardstock until it is absolutely wet.  You want puddles.  Then drop bits of your reinkers on your image and spread it out!  You can create a ton of different looks with adding color variations, cutting out parts of the image, etc.  Give it a try!  If you don’t have the embossing folder yet, make sure you get one soon.  I can’t imagine it will be retired but, coming June 1 is the "last chance" time for the current Stampin’ Up! catalog!
