My home is completely surrounded by large, 100 year old trees so the window of opportunity for a good picture is limited, literally. I resorted to the side porch for this shot.
Using my ruffled blooms Stampendous stamps from eclectic Paperie, I was so pleased with the results of my new Brilliance Dew Drop inks. Paired with my favorite, Shimmery White cardstock, the results were heavenly. I only wish I could capture that shimmer and shine in photo for you. The black cardstock layer was embossed with the Cuttlebug embossing folder in my Sizzix machine and then using the direct to paper method, I lightly dusted the raised areas with the shimmery Brilliance ink. The accent cardstock is from my stash of retired SU! Mauve Mist, a perfect match for the Brilliance Pearlescent Orchic ink. A white panel on the inside of the card gives the sender a little place to jot their own ‘little things that make life big’! My Brilliance Dew Drops were a special birthday surprise from a sweet friend, but you can pick yours up at eclectic Paperie when you are getting that Ruffled Bloom stamp set <wink wink>! Thanks for looking!
Edited to add: I actually stamped this card almost 2 weeks ago and never uploaded it. Then when blog browsing, I saw a beautiful card, similar to this one and thought how funny, ‘we were on the same page’! Now I can’t find it! If you recently posted something similar to this with textured plate and DTP, please let me know. I’d like to link it here for a comparison.
