Cottage Garden

I stepped outside my comfort zone with this card. For one thing the card is all embossed. I rarely emboss anymore, even though that was what sucked me into stamping. How many of you got sucked in by embossing? I know its just about all of you. That moment when you heat the powder and it bubbles and raises up!! Wow! It was just magic.

Today's card inspiration is a reminder to play along with the sketch challenge over at Inky Paws. There still is plenty of time to join the fun.

This card reminds me of a sort of cameo. I love the white embossed images on the blue cardstock. Do you have a special white embossing powder that you prefer.How about your favorite white ink pad? I am still searching for them. Usually I use a mix of Newton's Nook stamps. Todays card features just one set, the very versatile stamp set - "Cottage Garden" . 

This was my test card that I ending up completing just cause it was green (the most beautiful color in the world!) and i liked the contrast to the embossed card.
