I'm joining in with TGIF challenge #tgifc351 and their sketch which allows us to use up some scraps of paper. I've also used an old Stampin Up stamp set - I'm in a bid to use up all the craft supplies I have rather than buy any more for a while. Seriously - I don't need any more stuff! I had a great sort out yesterday - after the move I still had some crafting supplies to be sorted so yesterday was the great sort out. Any old scrapbooking papers I cut up and added it to my stash for journaling - any quotes or pieces that could be made into embellishments also got cut up and added to my journaling stash. It certainly made the pile of things never used a lot smaller and felt quite liberating.
Anyway I digress - on to the card I have created today. I started with my favourite Stampin Up Embossing folder - ever! Painted Texture 3d! I added some Distress Ink to the folder and then spritzed it with water before running it through the folder - that adds a light touch of the ink whilst you emboss. I used some Perennial Essence scraps I had found during my sort out - and layered them and added some Rik Rak and some Washi Tape. I cut out the flower from Floral Essence three times and inked it in Fresh Fig and added a touch of Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. The flowers were inked in Versafine Clair Shady Lane and Crushed Olive. The sentiment is from Tim Holtz.
