Walking In The Woods With Sympathy

This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 316 - Trellis.
I did another CASE for Sunday's FEATURED STAMPER # 214 - bfinlay aka Bridget. I just loved her PEARLY TREES. I changed the colors, layout, left of the ribbon and replaced the pearls with stickles.
I used last Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 313 - Crushing Bashuful Blues with Pizzazz.
For my background behind the trellis I used a fun technique created by my friend (Faith) called INK, SPRAY, SMASH using the colors from the color challeng.
I embossed the focal panel with SU's Square Lattice Embossing folder then double embossed with Nesties Label Four.
I stamped the tree and senitment from MARKS FINEST PAPERS set called "A Walk In The Woods" in pear pizzazz. I cut the tree out and popped it up then added stickles for last Thursday's STAMPIN' B'S CHALLENGE # 101 - Bling.
Headed to work now.

Rock-On Danny

This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 310 - Heat Embossing on Dry Embossing. Well I apparently choose the wrong EF to try this on. LOL. I had such a time with the negative sections picking up the powder even though I did use the embossing buddy before I started.
This is also for today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 104 - Rock & Roll. I could not decide if I wanted to be inspired by the technique to rock-n-roll an image or the title associated with music so I went with the music. I made this for my SIL who has been in a band for a few years now and while I have been resistant to his determination to go to practice bc it takes 2 nights of time from his family, his band is finally begining to get signed for performances. Still not sure if I like that or not either but he is my daughters husband and I love her. So this will be his Father's Day card. Hope you like it.

Paper: white, black
Ink: versamark, momento tuxedo black

A CASE of Happy Pansies

This is for today's FEATURED STAMPER - Tillymint. I chose to CASE her FRIENDS ARE LIKE FLOWERS and left off the bordered edge, changed the colors and flower type and used double embossing rather than just around the image.
This is also for Saturday's INSPIRATION CHALLENGE # 269 - Rooms by Zoya where I just loved this fabric of PARADISE OF FLOWERS.
I used a Pansy flower set from MARKS FINEST PAPERS called "Happy Pansies" and stamped the flower in Elegant Eggplant then the sentiment in riding hood red and shadowed around the flower with copic matches for soft suede for Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 307 - Soft Elegant Rides. These warm colors also fit Friday's FREE 4 ALL CHALLENGE # 49 - Warm Fuzzies.
This CAS creation took much longer than I care to admit as I have always had a difficult time with double embossing but I am determined to reverse that trend by persistance. LOL.
After coloring the pansie I added some copic glitter pen color and a half pearl in the center.
