10-minute-craft-dash #10

CD_10Pink, 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!
