KS Monday -- Aug 10, 2009


Hello everyone~ It's already Monday!? That means it's another Kitchen Sink Monday, too!!

I decided to stay away from Multi steps or 3 steps and made this card with the fun embossing resist technique.
First, I stamped old letter image from 3 Step Letters from the Past with moss green ink on the vanilla cardstock.
Next, I stamped the flourish images from Big & Bold Swashes set with VersaMark randomly and heat embossed with clear EP. And I sponged the moss green ink over the embossed image and the edges and used the paper towel to buff off the ink on the embossed images.
After that, I stamped the same flourish images with dark purple ink randomly and buff off the ink on the embossed images again. I also edged again with the same puple ink .
The sentiment was made with using Words of Comfort & Joy and Big & Bold Swashes.
