Swallowtail Birthday CARD, ATC#16

Close up of the image heat embossed in black.

Good Morning, I have a great 10 minute card!  Stamp the swallowtail image with VersaMark on a 3-3/4” x 5” piece of card stock, cover with black embossing powder and shake off excess, heat set with the heat tool.  Let cool for a few minutes.  Using the Sponge Dauber I added Daffodil Delight and Marina Mist. 

Using a brayer on the top and bottom edges I brayered the card stock using Lucky Limeade.

Playing along with Addicted to CAS #16 - Take Flight Card Challenge.

How To: Using Daubers on the Swallowtail Stamp ViDeo TuTorial, cQc#190



 

Get those daubers out.  My card is CASed and INspired with slight changes with colors, sentiment and ribbon from my talented upline Brenda Keenan.  Brenda's card is featured using Stampin' Up! daubers with the new 2013-2015 In-Colors.  I was so inpired to try it myself.  Be sure to watch her awesome video tutorial on You Tube.  Her card below is simply breathtaking an awe-inspiring in quality.

Check out the colourQ challenge #190 The Royal Court Design Team with their "LOVE" ly color palette:  Midnight Muse, Baja Breeze, More Mustard and Really Rust.  I've found that be sure to use a juicy ink pad that is more effective and to take your time dabing ... lot's of fun.
