Hi there dear friends!! This has been a very exciting week! My Etsy Store has been busy, I'm making plans for the summer and I received some very good news!! I can't wait to share my news with you, but that will have to wait a couple of weeks!!! Until then, I have a card and some Happy Mail to share with you!
Make It Monday #13: Impression Plate Tricks #2
This week's MIM Challenge is absolutely awesome and I know I will be using this trick frequently in the days to come!! I just love the look of the smooth label in the impressed background!
I took the PTI Diamonds Impression Plate and the PTI Jar label and made a sandwich for my Big Shot in this order:
Big Shot
- Impressing/Embossing platform
- Plate
- Impression Plate
- Die face up
- paper
- Impression Plate Mats
- Plate
Isn't this the coolest effect? I love it! I added a Banner Border Die Cut, some Copic colored Daffodills, a button and a scalloped edge. Easy Peasy and it looks so complicated!!!
Supplies used:PTI cardstock: Aqua Mist, Vintage Cream
PTI dies: Jar Label,
PTI Embossing Plate: Diamonds
Stamps: PTI YOF Daffodils, Signature Series Dress Form
PTI Button and Twine
Kaiser Craft Pearl
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Tim Holtz Brushed Corduroy
Copic Markers
What a fun technique!!! I hope you give it a try!!!
Happy Mail
