Hello-

1 more card.  This one for my MIL.  Shes one of the best people I know and she loves pink. This one is visiting the gallery at Can you Handle the Pressure.  The brief is to use an embossing folder with the option of layers.

A simple embossed panel repeats the sentiment.  The cosmos stem was cut 3 times making a thick layered die cut. The center was mounted on a bit of foam tape giving it more dimension.  All parts of the Cosmo's top layer were colored with alcohol markers.

Thanks for stopping by.

 

  • Dies: SSS Cosmos Stem
  • Markers: Altenew R502, Copic RV000, YG17,67; Y19,38
  • Papers: Hammermill
  • Embossing: Sizzix
