Tuesday Trigger

If you're here to see my Lily Pad Cards card, please go here or scroll down one post.

I am really in love with the colors of this week's Tuesday Trigger - I keep seeing juicy limes, lemons, oranges and pink grapefruit!


So here's what I did with them:


supplies: white cardstock,Hero Arts  CG172 Garden Bouquet, VersaMark ink and white embossing powder, shabby shutters, worn lipstick, spiced marmalade, and mustard seed distress inks, CL512 Lauderdale Sunshine, CL184 Thoughtful Messages, VersaFine onyx black ink

I clear stamped and white embossed the Garden Bouquet, then cut it apart into 4 equal strips, sponged each with a different ink, then reassembled it.

AH! Your card is beautiful! I love the resist technique. Here is the crazy part though...you should see my card - I came up with something so similar! I guess when you start with the same inspiration, sometimes it happens. Great card - beautiful image and a wonderful technique.
