STAMPloration Inspiration #74


Hi Everyone,
its inspiration time at STAMPlorations!


I heat embossed the Calla Lily with white WOW embossing powder on vellum and the "shaded" it with a paper clip. Tore the right side of the vellum and attached it to black card stock. Added the sentiment and sequins.

Cool technique. Vellum is so fabulous! I like the line of demarcation to the black.

Now you've got me intrigued how you did the shading with a paper clip! Such a gorgeous and striking effect with the vellum and black x

Saw this at STAMPlorations and it took my breath away...fairly flew over here to your site to get an even closer look. The shading is phenomenal. This is the kind of card that's so hard to make for me, but you did it, seemingly, with no problem at all. My mouth is still hanging open. Better shut it before the flies find it.

Oh this is so pretty! What a fun technique !
Hello Cornelia: I love the effect of the Vellum embossed like this, it's amazing the beautiful shades you get with just an embossing tool, or in your case, a paper clip, simply gorgeous.
Thank you for sharing.
Hugs,
Maria Rodriguez.

Sehr schöne Beileidskarte! Wusste nicht, dass man mit einer Büroklammer "shaden" kann, aber das Ergebnis gefällt mir gut!

Gorgeous card! I love how you embossed the image, and then colored the vellum with a paperclip. It really pops against the black cardstock! http://ruzascraftcorner.blogspot.com/

You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey.

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. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
