Some debossing and colouring for the Sketch Challenge at splitcoaststampers.com this week.
The sketch ….
My card …

Tips:
- I debossed the front of a Crumb Cake card base with the Dandelions 3D Embossing Folder. (Debossing is just the opposite side of the folder – most of the images will be indented instead of being raised.)
- The flowers were coloured with the White Stampin’ Chalk Marker and then Wink of Stella. The stems were coloured with a Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Marker. If you don’t have the marker for Pear Pizzazz you can use a blender pen or water painter with the ink pad.
- The single dandelion from Garden Wishes stamped on Soft Sea Foam cardstock with Gray Granite ink and then coloured to match the debossed image. I then added the bee trail and bee and a few Rhinestones.
- I stamped the sentiment with Evening Evergreen ink on Pear Pizzazz Cardstock.
- What about the white frame? I die cut three rectangles with the Stitched Rectangles Dies, put aside the rectangles for other projects and kept the outside frames. I glue the three frames together and attached them to the card base. The added layers give dimension to the card.
