Lawnscaping... Distressmania... Enough Said

Hello!  This week over at Lawnscaping there is a challenge using distress inks, so I wanted to share my newest creation with these fabulous inks!

I am quite proud of this card and love the turnout!  ( This was my first time coloring a full image with distress inks, and I'm in love! )

Materials used:
Paper Used: Recollections and DCWV
Hero Arts Stamp
TPC Studio Sentiment Stamp
Tim Holtz Distress Inks
Tim Holtz Embossing Stamp Pad
Zing White Embossing Powder
Memories Black Ink
Memento Ink in grey
Sponge Finger Dabber
Blending Tool
Cutter Bee Scissors


The trick to this card is that I stamped the whole image first in embossing ink.  I embossed it all in white.  Then I re-stamped the image on separate paper in black.  I colored the black image with my distress inks, fussy cut just the flower out, and before I adhered it over top of the white one I made a "shadow" over the outside edge of the white flower in grey to make the image really pop once the colored image was glued on top!
Thank you for stopping by and for any comments you may have for me, they always make me happy!
Happy Crafting!
