In the new catalogue there are some pastels, I’ve never used pastels before but hey, I’m not one to shirk from a challenge! For this card I stamped one of the images from the Artistically Inked stamp set using Versamark ink and then used a dauber to add the gorgeous grape and night of navy pastels to the ink. This created a beautiful pastel look which I finished off by adding some gold embossing powder.
I then stamped the sentiment in Evening Evergreen. I cut out the leaves die using the shimmer vellum and then added gold embossing powder randomly onto the cutout. I mounted the white card onto highland heather and then gold card stock to tie it all together. The frame around the word Hello comes in the Ephemera pack included in the suite. This suite comes with the most beautiful designer series paper which I shall be playing with over the weekend (hopefully).
I really enjoyed playing with the pastels and will come up with some more ideas over the coming weeks. The catalogue has so many gorgeous new items in it it has been very difficult to decide what to play with first.
Until Next time
