Todays card uses the lovely soft pastel papers from Melissa francis, and a couple of Martha stewart punches, flowers and lace. but the reason I put it up today was to show a stamping technique I used on it. I love the poem on this card, but it looked a bit plain when it was put together, so I stamped a tree ( from lovely as a tree – Stampin up) in versamark, and brushed some perfect pearls over the top. It gives a holographic effect – at some angles you can see the tree, and at other angles you can read the poem. This will possibly be mums Mothers day card, just because I love the the poem and I’m sure she will too. I am awaiting arrival of my second most amazing shelving unit so will be busy tonight filling it with papers! Til tomorrow….
