The feminine side

Here's the feminine version of Wednesday's card. I used the emboss resist technique here. I stamped Medallion using VersaMark ink onto the Paisley Petals DSP. Next, I sprinkled on clear EP and heated it. Finally, I brayered Early Espresso ink over the whole thing. After it dried a little, I rubbed the embossed image with a paper towel to get off the excess ink and then put it through the Big Shot.
I stamped Teahouse in Cajun Craze ink onto a Crumb Cake cardbase and added Crumb Cake seam binding ribbon. A pearl in the center of the medallion is the finishing touch.
Happy stamping!

Two sides of the same DSP

I've been playing with some of my new stuff: the Big Shot and some new DSP. The DSP is a sneak peek from the July catalog, yes the big one! The DSP, called Paisley Petals, and a stamp set, Four Frames, will be available for purchase in April with a $20 order. I haven't shown you the stamp set, but you will love it! It coordinates with the decorative label punch!
So this DSP has a very subtle pattern on it. There's actually a large floral pattern on this sheet, but it's not on this particular section of the paper.
I wanted to make 2 cards that are 2 sides of the same coin, so to speak. I'm using the same stamp (Medallion), the same layout, and the same DSP. This is the masculine version. I'll show you the feminine one on Friday.
