 I embossed my card with the dream Weaver template and light box, once the image was embossed I flip over the card and relined the template with the raised image .I used a dream weaver brush and applied the sage colour ink using the stencil as a mask.

  • Once the image is coloured crisply I moved on to the  back card stock and soften the white with a soft colour wash round the edges.Then taken a lager back round patterned stamp in inked it up in the same colour distress ink and stamped in on to opposite corners

  • I cut and mounted the embossed image on to gold mirror card stock and then added this to my stamp card stock.
