Here is Therese' card:
And, here is my card:
I stayed close to Therese’ card design, but wanted more dimension on my stenciled panel. So, I used white embossing paste tinted with 3 different shades of distress ink, so it would create an ombre effect, just as Therese did. I used the Rock n’ Roll technique for the feather with Mama Elephant Blush and Eggplant pigment inks, then inked the dots on the coordinating stamp with my glue pad and added clear glitter for some sparkle. I stamped the sentiment with gray ink on to a dimensional banner from SSS.

My next card is for this week’s challenge at CASology.The cue card this week is ‘Note’, so I went through my stash and found a combination of stamps and a notebook die.
For this card, I die cut the notebook die 3 times to add dimension, and used gray ink for the sentiment. The heart was die cut with silver foil cardstock to add a little shine, and I popped up the flower and leaves with foam dots. Lastly, I placed this panel on to the embossed card base.
*****
My last card is for is for this week’s challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More - our theme is Anything Goes.
I stamped the Water Blooms flowers with Mama Elephant Pigment inks, and masked the flowers before adding the stems and leaves. I stamped the sentiment in gray, and put a generous coat of Wink of Stella clear glitter on the flower centers to add some sparkle.
Well, that’s it for me today...If you celebrate, I wish you a very Happy Easter! Thank you so much for stopping by...I appreciate your sweet comments very much!

Love the effect of the embossing paste - great colours! It sounds so messy and complicated with paste and inks, but it looks so beautifully clean! Love the idea of the note 'ripped' out of a notebook, too! So glad you joined us at CASology and Muse this week!
