10-minute-craft-dash #10

Pink, grey and green - not a color combination I would think of normally. But here is my card for the 10 minute craft dash:

I inked up my new Hero Arts Tweed background stamp with grey pigment ink, clear embossed it and colored it with Copics. The sentiment is Hero Arts as well (Essential Messages). The embossing almost did me in - tok a long time, but then the coloring is so much easier. It took me 9 minutes and 49 seconds to finish the card - just enough time to put some gems on it - took me about 20 seconds to find them.....

Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

Oooh, this tweed background stamp is so pretty! I like how you embossed it- the look is beautiful. That sentiment is so great as well.

Thank you for playing in the 10 Minute Craft Dash challenge!

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time...

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose.
