Berried Cottoneaster

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

This past week I've taken a dive into my stencils.  It was mainly because I was 
invited to Seize the Birthday as a Surprise Party Guest and the challenge is A CAS card
using a stencil.  This was my first try and it would have worked fine except that I was
careless when I went back to emboss again after coloring and got a crease on the
front of the card.


Hence the sentiment layers.  They work to cover up the boo boo, but took 
some of the clean and simple out of the card front.

The photo doesn't show the texture from the embossing.  That's my favorite part of this card.

Lucky me that Lisa at Just Us Girls is asking for Anything Goes with a stencil.

Bonnie, you have really brought that one to life with the blends of ink on the berries and leaves! That embossing folder always creases my paper, too! Your cover-up looks just great!
