This is my first time participating in a challenge - I'm hoping I'm doing this right!
I was browsing the boards this morning looking for a bit of an inspirational push when I saw this speciality paper challenge.
I've been hoarding this paper for.ev.er. I think because I love it so much, and it's so old I'm quite certain I'll never be able to find it again - and totally regardless of the fact that I always manage to find something I love anyway (know how that goes??)
Anyway - it was a good push to pull it out. No clue who made that stuff - I also love that it's reversible, can use either the positive or the negative of the embossing.
Anyway. Moving on.
the rest of the card is Technique Tuesday. The tiles come in a milky white and they take the ink so easily - just swipe your pad right over them - I use them all.the.time. The base one in red is a part of the scalloped baseboards set. They come 12" long but are super easy to trim. the flower is part of the scalloped set.
I stamped then, on the red using my Versamark pad, the medium dot from the Whirly Words set - which is where the sentiment also came from.
Whew. Did I get it all? thanks for looking!!
