Happy Little Stampers Case The Designer May 2016...Happy Mother's Day




Hello and happy May.  I'm here to post a card for Happy Little Stampers Case the Designer challenge.

Our inspiration this month is provided by Melissa.  Take a look at this gorgeous inspiration card.



I was inspired by Melissa's dark card base, her use of embossing paste, and her watercoloring.


I used a floral stencil from Stamplorations and white embossing paste on an Enchanted Evening card front.


After my embossing paste dried, I did a rough water coloring over the white paste.  I stamped and white heat embossed my sentiment, fussy cut it, and then popped it up with foam tape.

Our challenge will run for the entire month of May.  I hope you will play along.  Please head over to the Happy Little Stampers Case the Designers blog to see more inspiration from the rest of the design team.

Thanks for Visiting
