Mother's Day Card

Oops, I forgot all about Mother's Day so I whipped up this quick card for my mom.  I knew that Mother's Day was coming up but didn't realise that is was next weekend.  Lucky for me Mom doesn't read my blog so I know she won't see her card

Embossing

I wanted an embossed only Christmas Tree so I cut out a chip board triangle for the Christmas tree and glued it onto the outside of my embossing folder.  I then ran the folder and cardstock through the Big Shot so that only the tree shape would come out embossed.  This is an old card from last Christmas so I think I am going to have to recreate it and see if I can step it up a bit for this Christmas.

Out of Africa

This is the first time I have inked up this stamp set and it looks like I will be using it a bit more.  I used the masking and rock n roll techniques on this set.  The animals are just plain ink but I used the rock n roll technique on the trees.  You can't quite see it in the photo but I used cajun craze, early espresso and river rock inks for the trees. I also used the Linen Thread as I find it is softer to work with than the Hemp Twine.
