Last week, I found a video tutorial by Dawn Olchefsky at dostampingwithdawn.com about sponged frame technique that I thought was so simple and stunning I just had to try it.
I used the same color cardstock (crumb cake) and inks (crumb cake, early espresso) but the embossing folder and stamps were different. I still have the Trust God and Serene Silhouette stamp sets on my work table so I decided to work with those. I also used the Square Lattice EP (embossing folder) because I like it and I haven't used it in a while.
Just like Dawn's tutorial, my main image was off to the left side and the sentiment was on the bottom right corner. I don't like using glitter because of the mess it leaves behind but Dawn used glitter on her card so I had to try it too. I glittered the tiny birds and OMG! it made all the difference. The card is so serene and elegant in person. I hope I captured that in the photo.
Noticed how I made two? 'Coz one is not enough! I'm so pleased with how they turned out I can't stop looking at them.'
Cheers!!!
