We had an early dinner tonight, so afterwards I was able to get back to my craft space. One more card today. It was inspired by Cupcake Inspirations, The Card Concept, and CAS Colours and Sketches.
I use a Penny Black Stamp with platinum embossing and I carefully copic colored it despite the embossing. (Popular wisdom suggests not to color heat embossing with copics, as the solvents in the marker may dissolve the embossing material resulting in a damaged marker tip.)
Thanks so much for visiting!
such a cool design Cat! love it
