Absolutely Awesome

Today's card features two stamps I think are absolutely awesome - the gorgeous new [hero_product_link sku="K6135" text="Antique Rose"] stamp from the 2016 Catalog, and one of my all-time favorite sentiments, the aptly-named [hero_product_link sku="G6071" text="Absolutely Awesome"]!

I stamped the [hero_product_link sku="K6135" text="rose"] with [hero_product_link sku="AF345" text="Intense Black"] ink. It's perfect for using with my Copic markers, as it's alcohol ink-friendly. The [hero_product_link sku="CG689" text="leafy background"] was also stamped in [hero_product_link sku="AF345" text="Intense Black"] ink. The black was a little intense (ha! hence the name...) so I covered it with a piece of vellum to tone it down a bit, and heat embossed the [hero_product_link sku="G6071" text="sentiment"] right onto the vellum with [hero_product_link sku="PW115" text="brass embossing powder"].

The rose was trimmed and popped up on the card with dimensional tape. Black Enamel Accents from Ranger were added to the flower center for a bit of extra dimension.

Thanks for stopping by - I hope your day is absolutely awesome!
