It's been a while since I've played along with the CASology cue cards. This weeks cue card is Icing! I was playing with a design for some birthday cards so I thought this was a perfect chance to make it fit for this challenge.
I finally got inky with the Distress Oxide inks!! Just a simple blending on some kraft, but I think it's really nice along with the white embossed cupcakes. A beautifully simple one layer CAS card!! One tip though if you decide to give this a try... after blending I patted the area with my embossing buddy. Don't rub! The ink will rub off on your embossing buddy. Just pat it on the area. Then I was able to stamp with VersaMark and add the white embossing powder without it sticking everywhere.
Here are the products I used for this card:
Stamps: So Glad You Were Born, My Cupcake (Unity)
Card Stock: Kraft (PTI)
Inks: VersaMark (SSS)
Distress Oxide Inks: Cracked Pistachio, Broken China (SSS)
Tools: Heat Tool, Embossing Buddy (SU!)
Miscellaneous: Fine White Embossing Powder, Gloss White Nuvo Crystal Drops (SSS)
Go check out the challenge over at CASology... there's still some time to play along!!
Thanks for stopping by!
See ya next time.
