Back to the challenge: we're asking you to get creative with embossing! For my sweet birdie card, I embossed the frame with an aqua powder (from zing!) and then colored it in with copic markers. I fussy-cut it out, and stamped a little scene using images from "home sweet home."
I stamped all of the elements, and then masked them all to be able to add my clouds in the background. The sentiment is just so perfect for a family welcoming their first child... I love it.
I hope you make time to play along. We're sponsored by Simon Says Stamp this week:
Have a happy day!
I love love love your card!!! No lie - you have me totally wanting some aqua embossing powder now! Ha ha!! What an awesome and fun an beautiful surprise! Love it! And I sure hope your kiddies feel better soon! This has been a rough year for my little menn in the sick department! I feel your pain!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that your kiddos are sick. You have my sympathy. This card is fab, though--so super sweet.
ReplyDeleteLove the aqua zing! Looks so great with the red colored accents, such a sweet little scene too!
ReplyDeleteInsanely cute! The embossing is amazing, and the whole thing makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteOh this is so sweet and lovely, Elena! Hope your kiddies feel better soon (& you get some rest!)
ReplyDeleteWow! I really love your embossed frame...so pretty! I love how you paired these stamp sets, too...such a pretty card!
ReplyDeleteLove the contrast of your patterned paper with your bright zingy (pun intended!) aqua embossing! Wonderful card Elena - it would have been easy for the whole design to just be too much competing for attention, but you struck the balance perfectly!!
ReplyDeleteI have to say, I think creating a scene has to be my most challenging technique, and you do it so effortlessly... how I admire you :)
ReplyDeleteThis is ADORABLE... and it isn't a typical baby card which makes it even better!!
Just so sweet!
ReplyDeleteLove love this sweet card!
