The image was stamped with Versamark and embossed with white embossing powder.
The background was already sponged with distress inks so I decided to use circle stencils and white ink to make it into a Bokeh Background.
To finish the card:
I used purple card stock for the next layer.
I sponged the base layer using the same blue and purple distress inks so it would look the same as the stamped layer.
I used an Elizabeth Craft die and a snippet of purple card stock for the sentiment.
The sun is shining today so I'm going to spend the afternoon reclining in a lawn chair and either napping or reading a book. I hope you have a great day too!
Ta Ta For Now,

Love the blues and purple in this card. Thanks for being my most recent follower, I just joined yours too. Hope you enjoyed the sun this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteSo soft and gentle Kathy but perfect for a chap with that wonderful stamp you used. It looks a bit like the ship is sailing out of the mist!

ReplyDeletePerfect male card. What a great idea to sponge the cardstock to match the background on the image.
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, Kathy! xxx
ReplyDeleteI think you and Jeanette should come over for a craft closet day. I think we all have an assortment of bits and pieces and things that need to be put together and if not I have enough for everyone. Love the card.
