Welcome to the fourth day of the Impression Obsession sneak peek week. Today's photo ended up with a bit of a glare, so I appologize for that. The close-up lets you see the colors a bit better:
To make the card, I added some red, orange, and purple Distress Ink to a piece of white cardstock using a foam blending tool. I didn't realize that the paper had a subtle texture to it until I finished adding the colors. I then blended the colors by spritzing the paper with some gold Shimmer Spritz. After letting the paper dry completely, I embossed the new Dandelion Stem (F8714) and saying from the Sympathy Sentements clear set (CL114) with black powder. To finish the card, I added a layer of gold metallic paper to bring out the gold in the spray.Need more inspiration? Check out what Daniela, Dina, Jeanne, Jenny, Julie, and Vicki created.
