Create along with us June 2016

Today I am playing along with the challenge at Papertrey Ink.  I was impressed by Nicole Headly's Wood Block Prints.  It reminded me of all of the beautiful mosaics that we saw in Morocco.


                                   Her For You Card
I chose to CASE this card from Nichole with a stamp from Hero Arts, that I embossed with white, onto a panel of water colored paper.  I used warm colors from my Kuretake paints with a touch of teal to color it.  That panel is mounted on a base of PTI card stock, Orange Zest.  The banner is the same card stock.  I also stamped the Splits Stamp, Just a Note with white embossing powder and used that on the banner. Some stitched lines with a white gel pen to finish. 

You can see more inspiration photos of the wood block by Nichole Here
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy.
