You have to resist

This is a great technique to try out.  It's called the Emboss Resist technique and it's easy to do and very effective.  The main panel here has been stamped with the leaves from French Foliage in VersaMark and then embossed with clear embossing powder.  The En Francais background stamp has then been stamped with black StazOn over the top, and then when dry I used a sponge dauber with More Mustard to shade around the embossed leaves, darker around the image.  Just added another leaf as an embellishment, and it's done.  Very easy.


Family stuff - My poor daughter had her four wisdom teeth removed on Monday in hospital.  She hasn't been eating for the last two days, and is only now just starting to swallow (can't chew) food.  Her face is swollen and slightly bruised, but she is gradually getting better. 

The males in this house are hoping for good weather today with no rain so they can head out with their go-karts tonight.  Too cold out there for me - I'll support them from home.

  1. First of all I like the card, it looks very elegant and hard to do.

    Secondly, poor K. Hope she is feeling much better now. Have never had problems with wisdom teeth, but remember the 'effects' from a 'normal' dentist visit, so sending her much sympathy.

    Hope G and J were able to enjoy their go-karting session. I'd be like you, supporting them from home - even if it was beautiful weather, not cold <3 <3
