Darnell's Twofer Challenge this month is using circles and bubbles - and just happened to have a stencil called "bubbles". So used it as a background with two different techniques and for two different occasions.
On the flower card, I embossed a piece of vellum with white pearl embossing powder and framed it in gold. White embossed the flower and leaves also on vellum and colored with copics. The flamingo card background was made with Jennifer Mcguire's stencil/baby wipe technique using various shades of distress inks. The leaves were die cut from a piece of alcohol inked paper. The feather on the flamingo is an idea from Bonnie Klass.
Vellum is the challenge at CAS Mix-Up and AAA Birthday this month so am entering the flower card there also.
Thanks for stopping by!
These are both fabulous Betty! I can't go past your awesome flamingo, how cool is the hot pink feather, it makes me very happy lol.
