Hello and welcome to the International Highlights Winners Blog Hop!  I am participating in this blog hop today because of everyone who voted for me here where we made a card of encouragement for someone who needs a little pick me up.  This is the card that many of you voted for that placed me in this wonderful group of demonstrators that I feel privileged to be hopping with today.


Today has been a hectic day for me here in NW Ohio so I'm scooting this card in just in the nick of time!  I love this To A Wild Rose stamp set so much that I had try Faux Oxide Technique that I so love doing at the moment.

Inspiration picture

This picture taken on my property in late June inspired today's card...

The Faux Oxide technique was used on the banner AND the focal point rose.  The Melon Mambo rose was fussy cut while an additional vellum layer used the die for the image.  The Garden Green background was embossed prior to being die cut with the largest of the Stitched Nested Labels Dies to create the banner.  The left/right edges were embossed to compliment the edging of the banner.

The linen thread was colored with Daffodil Delight to create the stamen (the detailing is in the above photo)!  Cleaning the sponge daubers in between applications colored the die cut vellum accents along with the inside sentiment panel and the envelope.  And the inside left/right panel edges were embossed to compliment the card front.

    1. Thank you, Kim! The Stitched Nested Labels Dies actually come with one long die that I used to embossed the edges. If you scroll up to the supply thumbnails above, you'll see that it's the 2nd die in the first column of the dies. I hope this helps! :)
