Our artist for the month of January is the queen of rainbow colors... Laura Bassen of Doublestick Heaven. She needs no introduction, we all love her style :) So let me show you her beautiful card (click HERE to see her original post) and my CASE...
I got inspired by the colors in Laura's card but instead of using embossing paste... I ended up using both dry and heat embossing, here is my card...
I started out by die cutting stitched edge panel of water color paper (using SSS Double stiched rectangle dies), then I heat embossed the rose with white embossing powder (using Blossom Overture). I water colored around the rose using Koi water colors. To finish it, I embossed the card base with cuttle bug embossing folder and I adhered it all on card base and stamped the sentiment (using Fond Expressions - 2 ) :)
Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment :)
Very pretty! Happy New Year to you and your growing family!
