Just Add Ink #498 'E'

Hello there,
with things so crazy in the world right now it's nice to snatch a few minutes to myself and craft. This week for Just Add Ink Tina has asked us to Just Add 'E'. This means that the main element(s) of your project should begin with the letter 'E'. A big favourite for this time of year is 'Easter', but it could be an object or animal - like elephant - or a technique like embossing. Embossing, both heat and dry, are two of my favourite ways to add interest to my cards, so embossing it was! 

Here's how it turned out.

It felt rather strange to not be colouring the flowers, but having said that they looks pretty special gold embossed. The card ended up being a celebration of gold, the gleam of the embossing and pearls and the texture of die cuts contrasted against each other. To add a little more interest to the flowers I added some shading with a light toned pink Blends marker, and to the centre of the little die cut flowers a swish of wink of Stella.

The Just Add Ink DT have lots of fun and fabulous 'E' projects to show you this week so please do go check them out.

Thanks for visiting,

Kim
