Fuchsia Note

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

What a glorious spring day as I write this!

This is not a flower that I'm very familiar with, but when I saw this 

embossing folder, stencil combination, I was intrigued.

Then it was on sale and it caught me.

This was not my first try.  

My first try almost convinced me to say no to

any more stencils!  I seem to have an issue lining them up whether I emboss

first of after coloring.

So I stood up to line the stencil on the embossed image.  It's still hard for me to 

see, but it did line up better.

Will I be buying more embossing folder, stencil sets?  Maybe.

Will I be comfortable using stencils eventually?  Hopefully.

I used blending brushes and Distress inks for all the coloring.

I used the finer point of an Arteza Twi-marker for the stamens.
