Inspired by Bobby at Just Us Girls!

TGIF everyone! Just a quick post this morning with a card I finished for the current Just Us Girls Challenge #742 to CASE one of the design team members. Here's my card inspired by Bobby's beautiful card!


Supplies: Paper - Tim Holtz watercolor; Poptone Black;
Spellbinders A2 card & Betterpress porcelain
Stamps - Hero Arts Elegant Weeds (c2011 retired)
Press plate w/dies - Spellbinders You Are Everything Sentiments
Other - Faded Jeans & Blueprint Sketch Distress Stains; 
Betterpress Costal Ink; foam tape; 
Ranger Seafoam white ep; Versamark ink

I was drawn to the white embossed weeds and deep blues on Bobby's card. I stamped and white embossed using a retired Hero Arts weeds set onto watercolor paper. My weeds didn't emboss as crisply as I would've liked, oh well.

Next I swiped Distress Stains over the paper - loved this look! Spritzed it a bit for some water droplets, dried it & then die cut with a stitched rectangle. Adhered to an A2 card & finished it off with a Betterpressed sentiment from the bits box. Quick & easy!

That's it for today. I'll be back tomorrow with the last-of-the-month post for Die Cut Divas. We have embossing for our August Challenge & would love to see you there!

Thanks for stopping by & happy crafting!!

  6. A wonderful CASE of Bobby's card. Your background is beautiful and because it is so perfectly imperfect, the shite embossing looks great with it. Thanks so much for playing with us at Just Us Girls.
