We have for you today a recipe from Ella's Kitchen!................
'Stamps, Punches & Embossing'
I couldn't decide on a sentiment for my card before it was e-mailed to Lori, however since then i have added one and will show a second picture a bit later today!
As you know i am a massive fan of Basic Grey products but when i saw the 'Marrakech' collection i was unsure as to whether it was quite 'me' .............i generally tend not to use many blues in my cardmaking, but the blues in this range are very vibrant and i love bright colours :) so decided i did 'need' it after all!!

HOTP. Seven different punches......Fiskars 'threading water', EK Success daisy whale of a punch, Marvy giga punch 3" oval and the remainder are all Woodware....the two sizes of circles, and the two leafy ones! And lastly the embossing with two folders......Swiss Dots & Textile Texture. The extra things i've added are the gems which are Kanban, i paper pricked the panel beneath the image using an Ornare template, and i coloured my image using Adirondack inks :)

I hope you can 'cook' up a card for us this week using Ella's recipe......................maybe you will have as much fun as i did! ;-D

ReplyDeleteWow Carol the detail on this is stunning - I hadn't noticed the paper pricking at first but once you do it's a beautiful addition to the style of the card. Love it.

Thank-you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I just love this elephant stamp, too cute...
ReplyDeleteI did have a time cutting my egg shape card, but couldn't figure out how to cut that shape with my cricut or I would have... I love my cricut... lol I am having a hard time figuring out Inkscape, so don't mess with it much.
