| Clarity Edelweiss / Embossed |
One Stop Craft Challenge - Bold and Bright
Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge Week 69 - Emboss It
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long - Non Traditional
Tuesday Throwdown - Non-stamped sentiment
The flower is one of the lovely Clarity Stamps which I 'debossed' in silver into extra thick embossing powder mixed with bright blue mica powder. Both of the white layers are factory embossed papers from Hunkydory. The card came together quite quickly and I was pleasantly surprised with how the flower turned out as I had never done debossing, nor had I ever tried tinting ultra thick embossing powder.
It seems that from the depths of emotion comes creativity. I don't think this is news to anyone, except perhaps me. I always believed it about other people, but never about myself.
I hope you like the card. I want to say a big thank you to all the blogs that hold challenges. Having the challenges to give my crafting a general direction has been a godsend this past week by keeping my mind occupied and giving me an outlet for some of my feelings.
Take care and happy crafting
xx Denise
