Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper May 2021 challenge

This is my design card for my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper May 2021 challenge. .If you make anything that includes some patterned paper you can link your entries and you might be the randomly chosen winner of the lovely prize that I'm giving away. Please click on the challenge link to find out more and join in the fun.

This is a commissioned 8 x 8 card using papers and elements from Crafter's Companion Full Blooms 12 x 12 paper pad. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the middle edges of the pink and gold paper. Some elements are raised up with 3D foam. Sadly, it's difficult to see the gold foiled roses that are between the other elements ... and the leaves in the right hand corner have been obliterated by a bit of over-exposure - they should look like the ones in the bottom left hand corner.

Krafty chicks 557: anything goes
Aud sentiments 273: use a birthday sentiment

Experimenting

I had used Lisa Horton's lovely Roses embossing folder with a piece of white card and had also saved the outside of a die cut I'd used earlier with some silver matt mirror card using Lisa's nested scalloped die.

I thought I would experiment and brushed across the embossed roses (not being too careful) with versamark before then covering with detail silver embossing powder and heating. I then covered the rest of the area by brushing with pink oxide distress ink. The card was finished off with the Dovecraft birthday greeting and the silver gems in the corners.

It's not perfect, but I think it was a good experiment using dry and wet embossing together.


This is for:

Incy wincy: colours of spring and/or embossing
Happy little stampers: anything goes with dies
The paper shelter 466: dies and/or punches
Mod squad: flowers - spring has sprung
Krafty chicks 556: all occasions
