Make it Monday #138, CAS-ual Fridays #119 and Simon Says




Tracey's Birthday Linky Party is going on all week.  Everyone is invited to share in the fun.  If you are looking for Tracey's Birthday Linky Party, please click here or just scroll down.








I'm sneaking in at the last minute with one more card for this week's Make it Monday #138:  Inlaid Die Cuts.  I had this idea to use the snowflake die, but didn't get to it until the very end.  I dry embossed the inlaid snowflake with the Mehndi Medallion Impression Plate and am entering my card into this week's CAS-ual Fridays CFC119:  Embossing challenge, as well as the Simon Says Wednesday Anything Goes challenge.





I used a new-to-me PTI Snowfall set I recently bought used on the PTI forum to make a snowy background using Brilliance Platinum Planet ink.  One more card for the stash to go to the Caring Hearts card drive.


Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  'Tis the Season Sentiments, Snowfall
Paper:  White, Pure Poppy
Ink:  Pure Poppy, Brilliance Platinum Planet
Dies:  Snowflake, Mehndi IP
Other:  Chevron ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon


Thanks for Visiting

  5. What a cool idea, to dry emboss your die cut before inlaying it back into your card! Never would have thought to do that...thanks for joining us at CAS-ual Fridays Joyce ;-)
