today, I would like to show you this card:
- dry-emboss white cardbase with Darice Wood Grain embossing folder and Sizzix Texture Boutique
- create a background on Ranger Specialty Stamping Paper using Distress Stains (Brushed Pewter, Black Soot, Picket Fence), Distress Ink (Pumice Stone), Hero Arts Unicorn Pigment Ink and the TCW Wood Grain mini stencil; add clear embossing powder on top to create extra shine and dimension - you should also check out Tammy's blog for a similar technique
- cut two stripes from this background and add them on the top and on the bottom of the card
- stamp flower from Altenew Hennah Elements with Versamark on watercolor paper and heat-emboss with clear embossing powder
- color the flower with Peerless Watercolors and adhere it to the card with foam tape
- stamp Karten-Kunst sentiment on vellum with Versamark and heat-emboss with black diamond embossing powder ("in stillem Gedenken" is German and means "in silent remembrance")
- add three Doodlebug Design Inc. sequins (Bettle Black) to finish the card
I am going to link this card up to the following challenges:

ReplyDeleteSehr schöne Karte, Tanja. Ich finde den Hintergrund Klasse, und auch die Textur, die auf aufgebracht hast. Und ich hoffe, dass das nur eine Karte für den "Vorrat" ist und gaaaaaaanz lange nicht gebraucht werden wird.
ReplyDeleteDanke, dass du bei der Stempeküche-Challenge mitgespielt hast!

So many great elements and you've captured such great texture here. I've seen this flower used a lot recently but it looks great with the clear embossing and watercolouring. Thanks for joining in with the photo challenge at ATSM, Anita x
ReplyDeleteEine tolle Karte...mal etwas anders zu dem traurigen ANlass aber dennoch sehr passend!

Trauerkarten sind die schwierigsten Karten überhaupt, finde ich und du hast diese hier wirklich schön umgesetzt. Ich hoffe, du wirst sie nicht so bald brauchen!
