Welcome back to the New Year with our first challenge at STB. Cathy is our wonderful host this time and would love to see either wet or dry embossing on our cards.
I white embossed MFT's Romantic Script and then stenciled over it with Gina K's Zinnia with her Light, Medium and Dark Orchid, Green Grass and Fresh Asparagus. Love those colors. Sentiment for Gina's Big Birthday and her Pearl Mix. Gina has a video with this technique on her You Tube channel.
If you're not a toppings kinda person, well...you can just
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!
Loll is our Special Party Guest again this month. Welcome Loll
stick with our usual "Anything Goes" Birthday!
The choice is yours!

ReplyDeleteLinda, I love your take on the challenge! Script and flowers always go well together, fab card!
ReplyDeleteThe script embossing takes this pretty card right over the top for me. I love the stenciled colors on that big zinnia with the black accents too. Gorgeous birthday card!
