Stampin' Up! Wild Ferns for the Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Thank you for stopping here from wherever you came!! We have a sketch challenge for you today and here is what I created for our hop...



Let's take a closer look, shall we?
I'm a little disappointed in how it turned out as my white Craft Ink was quite sticky and I never should have dragged it across the embossed card base. I didn't have any more of the Copper Clay cardstock left so it is what it is! I was also disappointed in how the embossing on Glimmer paper turned out. Apparently, my VersaMark was not sticky enough! But, at least you know it can be done. Sharon Armstrong proved that!

and the inside...

After I photoed it for the hop, I added a punch dog and heart from the retired  Dog Builder Punch.

  7. Those craft and versamark pads can be quite tricky! I just "pat" my white pad over my embossing! But the finished product is really quite nice. I never thought to emboss on glimmer paper! At any rate, the recipient will be happy to receive this sweet card.
