Our Ways to this week is NO Stamping. Cathy is our hostess and has brought us a lovely inlaid die technique card. I have to confess, Cathy, I didn't think I could make a card and not stamp! But after I took a deep breath and looked over my pile (a stack of die cuts from lacy quilter), a stack of vintage papers, and Cathy's reminder to use die cuts, I ventured forward.
I began with the floral oval and an embossed floral heart. The Tim Holtz big WISH die cut came next. I used a heavy piece of cardboard for the cut. Embossed with VersaMark and used Ranger 'Punch' Mixed Media Embossing Powder. I heated it in different ways to vary the look. The sheet music paper was die cut also with a Sizzix Harlequin pattern. The patterned bg from Memory Box was also dry embossed with a Paper Studio 'Modern' ef. I rubbed 'Olive' Gelato over the top. Stapled to a Basic Grey dp panel. PTI white base.
Thank you, Cathy, for challenging me to put my stamps away...and think outside my favorite box!!!
Can't wait to see the gallery. Have fun, friends.

This is great and I agree with Kathy...this challenge was made for you. You have a way of putting things together in fun and unexpected ways....all the texture on this is fab!
