I love it! It is so much fun. I love the washi tape and the Epic Day dsp, the colors are my personal favorites so what is not to love? Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, Gumball Green and Basic Gray, the colors are beautiful together. I made a few cards for my last stamp club meeting and wated to share them with you today. The first card features the washi tape. It is so simple to use, you just decide how much you need and rip it off. It is very forgiving too if you attach it to your card a little crooked.

Chalkboard technique card and Introducing Paper Pumpkin

Image
I love this old, but new again new technique. It is so much fun! I think it is the white embossing on the black that gives it so much pizzazz. We made this card at my last stamp club meeting. it features the chalkboard technique and new More Amore dsp. The scallops on the right are actually a doily heart (included in the designer series paper) turned on it's side. The More Amore paper is seasonally valentines but I really try and extend it's use to more than that. I think you can send this cute Hello card anytime. The red scalloped edge on the left is the new Real Red coredinations card stock, it is real red textured card stock with a pink core. So when we distressed the edge a bit you can see the pink inside. Cute! The technique is super easy, just emboss your images in white embossing powder and then daub some white ink around them. You can use white ink and clear embossing powder but the look is less dramatic. Supplies Stamp Set: Lacy and Lovely Ink: versamark (water...
