You Make me Smile - Embossing Paste and Masks - #CI12

Welcome back everyone 😊

Today I have been playing with my embossing paste and mixing it with some pretty colours from the Colour Inkspiration Challenge #CI12 

Please click the picture to see the colour challenge for yourself.

We have a range of colours to choose from this week

Whisper White, Night Of Navy, Elegant Eggplant, Cherry Cobbler, Flirty Flamingo, Dapper Denim, Smoky Slate and Peekaboo Peach.

I chose to use Elegant Eggplant, Dapper Denim, Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo and Whisper White.

Here are my cards. I actually made two!

You Make Me Smile

using Eastern Medallions

My card base is Flirty Flamingo and my card front is whisper white. I used a layer of silver foil to add extra interest.

For the card above I used the Eastern Medallions thinlits to make masks with acetate.

I used my ink pads sponging onto clear blocks then added a dollop of Embossing Paste to each block. Mixing each colour I applied it to the mask and paper underneath. I slightly overlapped each colour, this mixed the colours slightly to give a different shade or completely different colour.

After all of the embossing paste was dry I cut a medallion in vellum. I then went searching for my stitched shapes thinlits....Oh No! I couldn't find them...

I kept looking and ended up cleaning my whole craft room while trying to find them 😲 all to no avail. I have lost them 😢

So I used the layering circle thinlits instead for my sentiment.

You Make Me Smile

using the Pattern Part Decorative Masks

For the larger medallion I used the Pattern Party Decorative Masks. My card base for this card is Elegant Eggplant with Whisper White for the card front.

I used the left over embossing past to create this card and even then I still had a little left over, so I made one more card base. But unfortunately I didn't get time to finish that card. Hopefully later 😊

I added the3 elegant eggplant as a layer underneath the vellum for this card as the vellum just wasn't enough.

The sentiment for both cards is from the Eastern Palace stamp set.

Both Cards together

I finished the large medallion card by adding the enamel shapes in Elegant Eggplant

Isn't this just gorgeous!?! For the smaller medallion card I used the metallic enamel shapes. These shapes are such an easy way to pimp out a card. Don't you think

And another shot of them together
