Willow Bough

 

Dena is the host at Allsorts challenge this week. She has chosen the optional theme of "Embossing wet or dry". Of course you can also use the anything goes option.

My DT card features an embossing folder from an old V&A magazine. It's based on the Willow Bough pattern by Wm Morris. I also had these Wm Morris stamps that have never seen ink. I love the designs but never found a use for them! Until now.

I put ink over the embossing folder and ran it through the machine using cream card. Then I simply stamped in different colours the same stamp and mounted onto some toning card. I mounted onto a Kraft card blank and embossed in white using a Lisa Horton stamp.

I decided to give the other stamps in the set an airing in different shades of purple. This time I reversed how I applied the ink the the embossing folder and used lilac cardstock.

Prizes are from Stampendous and Oakwood Direct and WOWVOW for these weeks.
