Green Embossing

Hi Everyone!!
Today I did a simple card but I like the way it turned out.  I did a few different styles with this one.... first I stamped the background using Stampabilities/Star Spangled Background stamp.  Then I used CTMH/White Daisy ink with the flower from CTMH-Treasures set then embossed using clear embossing.  Then I used a sponge and just went over the flower and worked my way out and used a little darker green and did the same thing.  I also sponged all the edges too.
Here's a close up of the front.

This is a shot of the full front.

And this is the inside. 

The cost of this card is 3.00/each, like anything hand made no two will be alike, maybe very close but can't promise.
Thanks for stopping by!!

Items Used
  • Paper-Creative Memories
  • Stamps-Close to my Heart/Treasures, Stampabilities/Star Spangled Background
  • Inks- Close to my Heart
  • Punches- Martha Stewart, SU
  • Misc- Ribbon/Stach
