Corner Garden in Pastels

Today's card is called Take 2.  When I was making the Blue Corner Garden and embossing my background piece I thought I would try it with White card stock and white embossing to see how it would turn out.  I used a blender pen and different colors of ink, squishing the ink onto the top of my ink pads.  Did you know that you can transfer ink that way with Stampin' Up! ink pads?  Makes it very handy when coloring in images!

If you want to get a closer look at the card, just click on the picture.

I really like how this turned out.  My shading need some work but over all I like it!  I made this card to send to a friend who is in the hospital, I hope it cheers her up and let's her know I'm thinking of her.

Happy Fourth of July weekend.  I hope you all have a safe, one too.  Mine will be quite, but that is OK as I have somethings to do around the house!

I found out yesterday that my husband's cousins' wife was moved to a rehab hospital in Lincoln, NE.  Her journey is just beginning and she will have a long way to go yet before it is done.  I got her address so that I can mail her a card, every once in awhile, to help keep her spirits up.

I found a card like this over on Facebook, from a lady in the United Kingdom, so I wanted to try my hand at it too!

I used VersaMark ink and then white embossing powder for the image and the sentiment.  I used Craft White re-inker and a blender pen to "color" in the flowers.  My card stock is Soft Sky mounted on Whisper White, with 5/8" satin ribbon on the one corner.  I used my Embosslit- Beautiful Wings-retired for the small butterfly.  I added a small pearl to the center of the butterfly too.  The sentiment is from the retired set called Friendly Phrases.  I like how soft the stamped image is.

Thank you for coming to see my latest creation too.   Mary
