This month's theme at Lavinia's challenge is Flowers...
I am remodeling some of the baths at my house and I had some left over paint chips...
so I got inspired to use them and here it is my participation for your inspiration for this month challenge...
Inspire...
with 3 stripes of purple paint chips taken from my local hardware store...
I embossed the "Lavinia" flowers in white and in gold...
the second card...
Monochromatic in teals
uses a border punch in a diagonal line...
and the shadow sponged technique on the flowers:
- 1st emboss in white the poppies,
- then off set a second time your stamp using this time teal ink
- sponge around the edges with some ink ...
- wipe the emboss area with a wet paper towel to remove the ink from the embossed area..
love the color effect of the paint chips..very effective way to make some cool backgrounds and recycle some paper!
Hope to see you enter your project at "Lavinia's challenge blog" and get the chance to win some cash to spend at their website!
good luck...
