Trying Something New

Hello again, blog friends! Today is my turn to post on the a2z Scrapbooking Blog, and once again, I've channeled my 'Inner Laura Bassen' on my card:

A few weeks ago, Laura shared a card using a technique called Camouflaging Die Cuts, and later posted a  video on You Tube demonstrating this technique, so I thought I would try it myself. I used my Hero Arts Shadow Inks and Uppercase Alphabets for the technique and did selective inking for the embossed sentiment from 'Written in the Stars' stamp set. The alphas were die cut once out of the panel and 4 times out of white card stock and adhered together for one thick piece that was fitted back into the negative space. I love how it adds so much dimension to the card, even with all that white space.

Don't forget on the a2z Scrapbooking Blog, we always have a fun challenge, and our theme for this month is 'Use something new to you'.
