Just Breathe



Hi all,  I'm back again with a card that looks like embossing but actually isn't.   

I learned this technique from A2Z's  Martha Lucia and I love to use it on cards!  (Thanks Martha!)  I used the Hero Arts Bold Floral Stencil SA067 over GKD Moonlit Fog cardstock and sponged the matching GKD ink on the card over the stencil, then I moved the stencil slightly down and to the right and sponged again with white ink and poof - there you have a 3D looking background in no time at all!  

I cut the panel with a MFT scalloped frame die and another in white to inset the background panel into.  

Lastly, I used my Misti to stamp the sentiment Just Breathe in Hero Arts Black Ink 
from Hero Arts Hello Gorgeous CL924.  I just love that stamp set.
