CCEE Challenge 11-01-2012 - Embedded Flowers


Our CCEE Stampers challenge hostess this month is Vicky Gould - one of the very talented members of CCEE's DT!  Vicky's challenge for today is to use the embedded flower technique.  I have to say, my flowers didn't embed well even though I shimmed up my EF.  And, the fact that two of the flowers are polka dot doesn't help show the embedding of the EF very well.  But I will give this a try again!  If you'd like to give this technique a try, drop your card into Mr. Linky for everyone to enjoy at the CCEE Stampers blog!

Card Recipe:

Stamp:  SU Nature Walk and SU Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper:  SU Bashful Blue and SU Night of Navy
Ink:  SU Night of Navy
Accessories:  Flowers from stash; SU Ribbon and SU pearls


Be sure and check out the wonderful cards of the DT over at CCEE for some awesome inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by - later gator!

  7. Very pretty, Kathy. I do like that bird perched on the ribbon. I'd have to say that I think a folder with more texture does work better with this technique, BUT conversely, a more textured one means the flowers stand out less because they're more smashed into the background. It's a swings and roundabouts situation, I think...both look good, just different.

  8. This is beautiful Kathy. I love the embossing and how it goes so well with the polka dotted flowers.
