New stamp & new technique

Hi, welcome back!!

I tried a new technique today, that is to use a stencil to create dry emboss effect and I am happy to report that it turned out pretty good.  And I used a new stamp set (to me) that I've won from Barb G.'s blogversary giveaway last October.

Let's take a look of my card:


Supplies:
Stencil: Hero Arts Large Lotus Pattern
Stamps: Hero Arts - Studio Calico (Calico Borders)
Ink: Hero Arts Shadow Ink (Butter Bar), Memento Dye Ink (Tuxedo Black)
Other: doodlebug mini pearls

Challenges:





Thanks for stopping by, I wish you a lovely day!!

    Beautiful texture on this card, and love your color scheme--all that white looks so fresh with the burst of yellow. Thanks so much for playing along at CASology this week.
