Black Lace

Hi there,

Here is a variation of the first card I made for class yesterday.

Ink:  VersaFine Black Onyx
Cardstock:  Black, Various shades of Pink
Stamps: SU Petite Pairs
Other: Martha Stewart Punch Doily Lace Trim, SU  Curly Label and Decorative Label Punches, Sizzix Tim Holtz Regal Flourishes Embossing Folder, Double sided tape, Foam tape, Gluepen

For this card, when I adhered the circles to the lace trim, I used a gluepen.  This was easier (and less messy) than using glue.  Once I had adhered the strips onto the cardstock, I embossed it with Regal Flourishes embossing folder.  In my rush to emboss it, I put it in the wrong way, the embossing was on the back, and the debossing was on the front.  Oops…

I stamped the sentiment, punched it out with the Curly Label punch, and mounted it onto Decorative Label punch with foam tape.  This was then adhered to the card.

Even though I was initially disappointed with my mess up, the debossed look grew on me.  One of the ladies in class said it gave it a leather look.

Bye for now,

Penny
