A friend is going to be having some surgery this week so I thought I would make her this card to remind her to relax and take care of herself after wards.
I also used this card for the challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut blog. The challenge was to use any kind of embossing.
RECIPE:
Cricut Cartridges: Sweethearts, Splish Splash
Patterned Paper: Cosmo Cricket
Microbeads: Stampin' UP!
Stickles: Ranger
Gel Pen: Signo White
Alpha Stickers: Doodlebug Designs
Punch: Stampin' UP!
Thanks for stopping by,

The How To's
There are two really fun things about this card. The "bubble bath" is from a combination of stickles and micro beads. I thought it came out fun and frothy.
The tile floor I designed using a combination of heat and dry embossing.
1. Use a stylus and ruler to score on the diagonal on a piece of patterned paper.
2. Use a signo white gel pen and a ruler to fill in the scored lines.
3. Apply VersaMark ink to entire piece of patterned paper.
4. Apply clear embossing powder and heat.
I love that it came out like travertine tile. I even "burned" a few areas to get some pretty color variegation.
This is Awesome! I love it!!!
