Just Add Ink #424 Texture

Hello there,
eeek it was back to freezing cold frosty mornings this week but the promise of spring is on the way as some hardy optimistic trees are already producing blossoms which makes me smile!  I obviously had blossoms on my mind when I was putting my project together for this week's  Just Add Ink challenge. This week Di has challenged us to Just Add Texture.

Here's how it turned out.

When I think texture two things spring to mind - dry embossing and embossing paste. Embossing paste was the way I decided to go, tinting Shimmery White paste with several tones of pink and then using a mask to create a pattern. Once that was dry (it doesn't take long) I was able to layer some clusters of flowers over the top to frame the sentiment. An added little element of texture is the stitching detail and I also embossed the sentiment. This card is destined for a new teen who loves pink and sparkle so I think I'm on a winner!

The Just Add Ink DT have lots of wonderful projects to show you so please do go check them out and then come back and join in the challenge!

Thanks for visiting,

Kim
