Merry Monday #85 - Magical Wonder


This week's Merry Monday is Magical Wonder - to create a card with an all white or ivory base and use Kraft or brown for the sentiment and accents.  I can see now, as I reread the instructions, that I have messed up.  I put a layer of Kraft in my base.  Unfortunately, my tape is really stuck and I can't take it apart without destroying the card.  If you need to delete me, I will understand.

I used a fun little tree stamp from PTI called Polka Dot Parade for my focal image.  I stamped some of the branches with VersaMark ink and embossed with white embossing powder and the other branches, I stamped with Gina K. Designs Kraft ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.  I used Spellbinders Classic Ovals & Lacy Ovals dies.  The embossing folder is from Darice and is called Swirl Background.  It reminds me of swirling snow.  The cardstock is Pure Luxury White and Kraft from Gina K. Designs and the ribbon is from American Craft.
