Lawnscaping Challenge # 44 . New Technique

Hi Everyone!
I'm here to introduce a new challenge at Lawnscaping. This time it's a "Try a new technique"      Challenge!!!
We have wonderful guest designers with us this time too:  Lisa Spangler and  Jennifer McDerMott

For my card I used stamps from Critters in the forest, flutter by and Stay Tuned. My new technique was to stamp and clearemboss on patterned paper and then ink the bg. The pattern on my paper was newsprint which doesn't show through the embossing - ah well - learnt something new anyway, and I think the bg is OK anyway so...
Our fabulous sponsor this time is ; Lawn Fawn!!! You can win a set of your choice YEAH!!!

Pop over to Lawnscaping for all the info you need and to join!

Have a great day Hugs, Karin

Hugs, Karin

Thanks - You make all the difference!

Here's a card I made for the die cut challenges at Ozaak and Simon Says Stamp challenge. I'm also entering it Young Crafters Unite where they challenge us to try a new technique and I did something I've never tried before - create a background/pattern using die cuts in an echoing effect (repetition and picked up bg color in my flowers - hope I understood the technique correctly (-: ) You'll find the description here:  Scrapbookers Paradise. If you haven't seen Angela's Scrapbook layout there you should go right away - it is AWESOME - how I wished I could scrapbook like her!

I'm also entering it for the Thank You card challenge at Moxie Fab World and at Papertake weekly it is Creatures great and small.
