Hey There,
Do you believe this is tutorial number 550!!! I like to pat myself on the back for every 50 tutorials I put on here, lol. Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat. . . . . . . . . . Isn’t sharing fun! Well I hope you are enjoying my tutorials as much as I enjoy doing them for you.
How about a card for that nature lover today. You know the guy that likes to camp or that person that just loves to sit by a bonfire.
This project highlights the emboss resist technique. Great way to get those light images in front of dark backgrounds.
Psssstttt. .. .There is a little sneak peek on this card. . . I’ve used one of the ticket stamps from a new set that will be out in the up coming Occassions Catalog. . . stay tuned for that catalog, it is out of this world wonderful!!
