Morning all its challenge time again over at Through the purple haze challenges this week our theme is Embossing and our prize of £10 coupon is sponsored by My mums craft shop
I decided to use my Glittergirls Bookatrix Embossing board to make the card base
I embossed several layers in white black and Art Deco paper from Papermania
the image is also a Papermania Stamp which I stamped on to white card and coloured using my promarkers
Hair: Shale
Cinnamon
Henna
Primrose
Skin: Pastel Pink
Blush
Ivory
Cool Grey 5,4,3,2,1
Black
Blender
After colouring I used Sakura green gel pen to highlight the feathers on the ladies dress and her head piece
I also used versamark pen and enchanted gold embossing powder on the same areas.
After cutting out the image I covered it completely with embossing ink and clear embossing powder and heat embossed it.
To finish I used Diamante Flourishes, Spellbinder die cuts, Ribbon and Roses
