Just Playin'

  Do you ever make something and want to run to someone and say... LOOK WHAT I MADE!  Only you know your husband will just give you the sympathy "yeah, nice" and your children will look at you like "mom are you crazy?"  Well, that is why I have a blog.  So I can run and share my creations with someone(s) who care! 

Here is a card I made just cause I wanted to try brayering my texturz plate with ink and then running some paper through with it!  Well, the ink is a little blotchy in parts but it gave it a cool look! 

I also added dots at the points where the diamonds meet with my white gel pen, creating a fun and cute background. 

If you look close can you see my velum sweetest stem embossed die cut!

Another detail you might not be able to see is that I embossed the "thank you" with Iridescent Ice powder!  With the final addition of the hat pin and beads from the Pretties Kit, I was pleasantly surprised how this card came together with a elegant flare.

Thanks for visiting, I know you can be excited with me!

Happy Stampin'
