Inspired by Carole for Paperartsy

Here is my efforts this week, it is a combination of both Carole's posts and a bit of me going off on my own.

I took a piece of mountboard and painted in Butternut, Texture paste through my new Cornflower stencil and then left it at that, I really like to white effect. Stamped the side in the bottles from HP1100. I stamped this in archival ink black, then put gold embossing power on top before the black had dried. The wording is from HPXR05EZ. I then stamped mini script in Versamark and embossed in gold, gold embossing around all edges, pearls and wire to finish off the project.

Hope you like!! Thanks for looking.

    It looks great, Margaret - I had forgotten how good gold embossing can look, I really had fun this week (even with the beads, lol!!)

    ooh fab. I'm in love with this cornflower stencil and your idea to put the bottles down the side really works for me.

    I thought the bottles look great too; that is such a great stamp. I love the gold text too and the beads look gorgeous. I love the whole project, it's so pretty and the butternut looks lovely with the cornflower stencil. x
