Hello and Happy Thursday! Today's make and share features a mini poppy, heat embossing, ink smooshing and scrap card.
To start, I stamped and heat embossed Altenew's Mini Poppy stamp on a snippet of card. I thought about coloring with alcohol markers but decided on a more organic theme so I decided to ink smoosh (one of my fav techniques).
Using shades of purple and green Distress Inks, I smooshed until I was happy with the panel. I added more snippets of lavendar card, mounted the mini panel on top using foam pads and added all to a purple card base. Finally, added a piece of black licorice twine and lilac gems for interest. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
Until next time, Happy Crafting!
