Hello crafters,
An oldie but goodie today... both in supplies and technique!
I first smooshed bright inks all over my cardstock and applied black ink to an embossing folder (on the flat side) giving that contrast of bright against dark. The folder is an old Cuttlebug/Provocraft and if I remember correctly the one that convinced me I "needed" a die-cutting machine!
The quote is from the "Life is so much Better" stamp set designed by my crafty friend Brenda from Floral Fantasies. I then die-cut it with another oldie, possibly Nellie Snellen (anyone recognise it let me know, it's some 15 years old and I have lost all details!).
There you have it, an easy card but eye catching.
Fabulous card love the coloured embossed flowers against the black-great technique.

You achieved great results with the inking and EF, I fail miserably usually. And no help with the die, I lost packing and totally forget the makes, I'm OK with make of stamp!! Many thanks for sharing at Allsorts, Stamping Sensations and WLS challenges.
