\"Eggcellent
\n<\/a>\"Weekly-Favorite\"<\/a>
\n<\/a>Today we are taking another look at the Our Daily Bread designs<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0March release! Such beautiful images, perfect dies & gorgeous paper for spring & Easter!
\n\"Eggcellent
\n<\/a>For my Easter basket card, I started with a piece of the beautiful Shabby Rose paper. I wanted a tone on tone sort of look so I kept the colors soft. The Victorian velvet ink is a good match for the paper & I only used a couple of Copics to color in my basket. Since generally, Copics & heat embossing don’t go together (the markers tend to “melt” the embossing), I had to go about it a little differently. I could have used water color paper & water based markers, but the texture of w\/c paper doesn’t allow for smooth embossing. So here are a couple of pictures showing my work around for this conundrum. (Click to make any picture larger.)<\/em>
\n\"Eggcellent
\n<\/a>First, I stamped the basket w\/ the Victorian velvet ink and used the two colors of Copics shown to lightly color it in. It looks pretty good like this…a no line coloring sort of look. But I really wanted it white embossed. So I used a stamp positioner to line it up again, stamped it with white pigment ink and heat embossed with white powder, as shown below.
\n\"Eggcellent
\n<\/a>As you can see, the colors go with the paper just perfectly! I fussy cut the basket, stamped some of the eggs w\/ the same Distress ink & die cut them with the matching dies. I added a die cut greeting and some white grass in and behind the basket. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 & here’s a look at the inside<\/em><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
