For this card, I stamped the wildlife images onto this linen textured paper which gives them such a great look. It is a one layer card, so I added the red brads in the four corners to give it a little more oomph!This card uses a bit of designer paper as the base for the great wild life stamps. I then added a small sentiment panel which was stamped with the sentiment from the set, cut/embossed using a Spellbinders die and then I added the animal print over the top using Versmark ink and clear embossing. I backed a jumbo eyelet with a brown card stock circle and tied some brown ribbon through it, adding a bit of copper cording around the ribbon.Please hop along with us!

Welcome to Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Company's July Blog Hop!
This month's New Stamp Set Releases areSuch a simple card, and so easy to mail. I stamped the word images onto the red card stock using Versamark ink and heat embossed with gold. The Geisha girl image is stamped using Black Soot distress ink and clear embossed. The red card front is matted with black. I then stamped the sentiment onto black and heat embossed using the gold powder and then backed it with red. I used gold and red cording behind the sentiment panel with just a simple knot for more interest.Aren't these blossoms just gorgeous? Yes! I stamped the same image twice onto the white panel which is cut/embossed with Spellbinders Romantic Rectangle die. I colored in the images with Distress markers before mounting the panel onto the coral colored card stock. The top of the coral layer is embossed with a Spellbinders M-Bossabilities folder. I added the beautiful trim (also from MFP) to the top of the image panel.Asian Delights Featured July 17 Wild & Free Featured July 18 Garden Art Featured July 19 Hot & Spicy Featured July 20 Please hop along with us!

I stamped this fun new image onto a light green card stock using peeled paint distress ink, then added detail with distress markers. I stamped the image again onto garden green card stock using versamark ink and clear embossing. I then fussy cut the frog out and popped it up onto the lily pad. The blue panel is embossed with distressed stripes folder - I think it looks water like.
The sentiment is stamped onto the white card stock with peeled paint ink and cut/embossed with a Spellbinders die. I hope you like it. The sentiment is a great one, don't you think? The sentiment and the image are new ones from Rubbernecker.
I inked the stamps (new ones from Rubbernecker) with markers before stamping. I love finding a good vertical sentiment. They seem harder to find, but I thought it worked well on this card. The top corner is punched so the mat layer of the card shows through more. Very CAS and mailable.
Stamps: Happy birthday set large SKU 625, Floral #1 SKU 608-01
I love these new stamps and distress ink colors. I brayered the three colors onto a small square of glossy card stock, stamped the flower image (new) over the three colors using Black Soot ink. I then embossed with clear embossing powder cuz that ink takes a while to dry on glossy card stock and smears. Ask me how I know! Next it is mounted onto the peacock color card stock. The card is a nice lemony yellow to match the ink. I stamped the sentiment (from a new Rubbernecker set of sentiments!) using the Peacock Feather ink (and my stamp a ma jig to get it straight) onto the card front. I then cut off 1/2" of the yellow and added the purple border.

Paper: Glossy white, Lemonade yellow, peacock blue and lilac
Ink: Black Soot, Peacock Feathers, Squeezed Lemonade, Shaded Lilac
I used just one of the sentiments from the new set on this card. It is stamped with blue ink onto glossy card stock before cutting/embossing with Spellbinders oval die. The star was cut with a Spellbinders star die and then embossed with the Cuttlebug Paisley folder. I outlined the edges with a dark blue marker to give it a little more definition. The card front is divided by using two different designer papers and adding brads at the seam. I also added lots of brads to the star and ribbon tails to the sentiment panel.
