Hi there,
Here is my card inspired by this blog post at Wee Folk Studio: http://weefolkstudio.com/2014/01/22/...iews-giveaway/
I really enjoyed seeing how she uses natural elements in her delightful and unique vignettes. My card is not a dimensional design, but I did use an interesting natural product to create it.
Have you guessed from the title of my card what I used to stamp the flower? Yup....milk stamping.
I first saw this on our own Lydia's (aka UnderstandBlue) blog. It was so fun.
I first made a stamp pad using paper towels on a plate and added milk. After pressing my stamp into the milk, I stamped off to remove excess milk then stamped onto my paper. I dried the milk with my heat gun then ran my iron over it to reveal the impression. I added the piece onto a bkg. that was stenciled using drywall tape.
Thanks for looking,
my blog: http://snippets-karen.blogspot.ca/

This is stunning, and I am amazed at how you achieved it. I will have to check this technique out! Beautiful card!

This is beautiful! I saw Lydia's card on FB, but didn't read the blog post. Now it makes sense to me.
I think I will have to try this...soon!
Also...I have often seen your cards here, but I just went to your blog. FABULOUS!! You really capture the CAS style so well! If I never had to go to my paid job, I'd hang out there a lot more for inspiration!
