Happy Tuesday! My project today was made for the Splitcoaststampers Technique Lovers Challenge. Belleek Pottery was our inspiration and we were to create a colored pattern on cardstock by applying ink on to an embossing folder. You can find step by step instructions on how to perform this technique here.
I inked the front side of the embossing folder with Antique Linen using a brayer, inserted the cream cardstock, turned the folder front side down on my Big Shot and embossed.
I created a frame, sponged on ink and mounted with mounting tape on the embossed layer. I punched several little flowers, sponged ink on, distressed and glued four together for each flower. After applying ink I attached the leafy flourish to the frame and base of the card and attached the flowers. I sponged several rock fern foliage and arranged around the flowers to complete.
I love the elegance of this card. It really is so much prettier in person than in the photo.
I hope you are having a great week and appreciate you stopping by. I hope to have another pretty project for you tomorrow.

Great result with this technique. When I have used it, mine have most often turned out okay but not quite this perfect. Your card is very pretty! 🙂

Kitty, this is overly stunning, boys do you have your techniqes down and such a vision for a beautiful card.. Love the antique Linen ink, I actually have that one , now I have to get a brayer to remake this card..thank you for the link to the turtorial!! Have a fantastic day! How is Toby??? I am assuming you didn’t hit the anger stage, lol Gosh I told all my friends about your last post and they laughed as hard as I did.
This is elegance personified!!! I have to try this. When I have tried this technique once before I got the paper upside down so maybe this will be a success. Thanks again!!
Kitty, I think this is one of the most beautiful cards you’ve ever made and you’ve made a few! What is the name of the MS PAP and the embossing folder name? I’d love to add them to my stash. When I get in the stores they all look alike!! Thanks so much for keeping us inspired.

Kittie, sorr if this is a repeat, I keep forgetting about that security thing and type my message and close the window after hitting enter and then I remember, and have to come and do it all over again.
Love this technique, you make them all look wonderful, and easy!!! Which I know that they are not, your talents never cease to amaze.
Thanks for sharing.
