Hello

I'd like to share a card I quickly whipped up this morning.  This is more like the cards I used to make before I discovered Copics.
I masked off the center of a piece of white card stock and sponged SU! Bashful Blue ink on it.  Then I just stamped an image from an older SU! set titled Echoes of Kindness in black ink.  The sentiment is by Hero Arts and I decided not to do any coloring at all.  My larger panel is also just a piece of white paper that I sponged all around the edges with ink.  I embossed the smaller panel with a Swiss Dot folder and used the Basket Weave folder for the larger panel.  I matted everything with black card stock and I was done.   Thanks for stopping in today and I'll see you soon.

  2. No Copic coloring needed at all on this beauty! Love that embossed background and the focal point being the flowers and sentiment. Wonderful sponging with the ink too! Just gorgeous.

  6. I LIKE this card! It's very clean, simple design, yet all the texture from the embossing - really adds so much detail & dimension. It is very pretty & I should remember to do some like this myself! Doesn't look 'fast' either...just well designed & executed! TFS & Hugs

  11. Gorgeously simple, Donna, and I adore that embossing folder you chose! I love that you went back to your roots but I also love your cards/images colored with Copics so I'm glad you discovered them. :-D

  14. Hi Donna! I remember this beautiful style of yours and I love it! The two embossing designs are gorgeous--who makes the Basket Weave folder? I just signed up to get your posts by email because I'm so forgetful about visiting blogs and I don't want to miss yours!!
