It's a new month at CASE Study, and we get to case the fabulous Wida who creates the most gorgeous cards - girly but trendy and edgy. Here's her first inspiration card:
I inked the emboss side of a grunge spots embossing folder with Weathered Wood Distress Ink, spritzed with water and pressed the card onto the ink. Then I inked the deboss side of the folder with Worn Lipstick Distress Ink, spritzed and pressed card onto that. So I ended up with positive and negative prints of the same design in different colours. I cut two hearts (Sizzix) from the pink panel and layered them onto the panel, added a bit of stitching and a sentiment, and tied it with some baker's twine.
I'm also entering this into Virginia's View - Stitching,
