Following Day 5's inspiration, I created another card using the same technique that is dry embossing and inking with distress inks.
This time, I wanted to use another of the Winter Limited Edition distress inks Festive Berries. I'm actually not very fond of red but I love the tone of Festive Berries. Will definitely be using it again.
Here's my card:
I wanted to create a gradient look and the pearlized effect is really so pretty and subtle. The poinsettias die cut were dusted with rock candy stickles. I love how it adds a frosty look to the poinsettias. I learnt this trick from Jennifer McGuire but I didn't have the chance to try it till now.
Supplies Used:
Paper - PTI Stamper's Select White
Inks - Distress Inks Festive Berries, Victorian Velvet, Worn Lipstick, Fired Brick, Momento London Fog
Stamps - PTI Christmas Poinsettias, Stylish Sentiments Holiday
Others - Sizzix Snow Flower Embossing Folder, PTI Pure Poppy Felt, Zing White Embossing Powder, Vellum, Rock Candy Stickles, Claudine Hellmuth Studio Matte, Cream Floss, SU Designer Buttons, PTI Christmas Poinsettias Die
Another beautiful card using the poinsettia die! The background is beautifully done as well and I love the bold font embossed on the vellum. there is a lot to like here! :)
