Black, White and Red inspiration

Welcome to a weekend post from me, I went surfing for some inspiration and found it easily at the 4 Crafty Chicks site what a fabulous picture this is.  I already knew I wanted to do embossing on white to match the ceiling so I went in search of a sketch and found just what I needed at Tuesday Morning Sketches.

 

Here's what I came up with, I have two lattice embossing folders one large and one small so I used them both here along with black and red mats and a little bit of heat embossing on the flowers and a tiny bit of water colouring on the bird.  

I love how the bow turned out, I got this satin and organza ribbon at one of those $2 shops only it was on sale and I paid $1.40 for 5 mtrs!  Got to be happy with a bargain like that especially when it is such a pretty ribbon.

Thank you for stopping by to see my latest creation.  Please take the time to say Hi so I know you've dropped in.  I'll try to slip by and check out your latest posts.

Cheers,

  10. YES! This is similar to how I intended to use the sketch. White texture and elegance! Didn't have time to play this week, though, but I'm still hoping to create the card later this week.
