Simon Says Stamp's Technique Challenge

Hello there :)

I created this card for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!  The theme this week was "Love This Technique" and we were challenged to create something using a technique we love.  If I had more time, there's about 50 techniques I love, but this iron-off technique was the one that popped to my mind first :)

I stamped and colored the floral image with Peerless Water Colors, then masked it off and colored the background with a pretty blue color.  When it was dried, I put a piece of copy paper over top and ironed it gently to take the embossing off.  It was the first time I've ever tried it and I loved it as much as I thought I would! Yay for challenges~!!

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Holy cow! This card is AMAZING! It really stands out as an elegant and almost magical-looking creation. Those layers of aquas and blues in the background are really stunning and those flowers are a huge WOW! I love how this has a classic elegance. It reminds me of something from long ago-- like a pattern on a china teacup. I love that type of look and this really is remarkable. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. I felt so inspired after seeing this piece!
