Stampin' Up! Friends Never Fade for JAI31 .....
August 24, 2010
Hubby is away this week at TechEd on the Gold Coast, so it's easy dinners and stamping as soon as the kids are in bed this week! Feeling so inspired to stamp and create and share. Think it's the new Stampin' Up! 2010/2011 Idea Book and Catalogue. I know I keep saying it, but you are going to LOVE it. It's just so inspiring - new colour, new products, new samples.
So today's card is for Just Add Ink 31 - a colour challenge to use Real Red, Chocolate Chip and Kraft. I've used a new stamp set Friends Never Fade and the new Newsprint DSP. I've used the emboss resist technique with brayering over the DSP. I like how a little bit of it shows through still.
The rest is pretty staright forward. Greeting from Stampin' Up! Occasional Greetings. Kraft layer is crimped (loving crimping at the moment - I am crimping anything that's not tied down, lol).
Hope you have a crafty week too. Be back soon with some more creations!

Ooooh! That looks fabulous! I love that some of the DSP shows through! I've found that only copious amounts of basic black ink will really cover anything! I love this look though - really effective. And I love this set. :-)

Stunning card Claire, I am inspired now to get the embossing and brayer out. I love how you have used these colours together.
