hi there,
Here is my card for the WT today; Whatever Suits You. I went with hearts for my card.
I began by inking up my bkg with Distress ink then I white heat embossed the flowers. I stamped the flowers again using the same green as the bkg to add a shadow effect. Stamped some script in the bkg and splattered with some water to lift the ink.
thanks for looking.

Fabulous shadow effect Karen, it really looks like the flowers are standing away from the surface of the card! Love the subtle interest of the varying depths of green in the background too, gorgeous card!

This is a beautiful technique. Love the pretty green. Makes me anxious for spring.

This is such a cool effect, Karen! I was sure those heart stems were die cuts because the technique adds SO much dimension! I love the green and crisp white combination.
