Instead of an outline stamp, I decided to go with a texty stamp over a tree shaped brusho colored area. I love that the brushos gave me both a yellow and green shade in the same container. The stamp comes from Penny Black, Season's Wishes.
I die cut one side with SSS's scallop stitches die and added a strip of gold foil tape from CTMH to the opening side. This is a smaller card 3.25 by 5. I love Tracey's technique and design, and I can see using it more often.
Here is Tracey's lovely card:
love your card Cat - the gold edge with the gold text is perfect!!

ReplyDeleteCat I love how you interpreted Muse with the strip of gold and the watercolouring. That gold embossed tree is awesome! Thank you for sharing with us at Muse this week!
