Using Sponge Daubers I added ink to the reverse of the embossed panel. I used Lemon Lolly, Berry Burst, Timid Tiger and Coastal Cabana inks. The Sponge Daubers add the ink unevenly to the image and I really like the distressed effect it gives.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping Dreams Blog Hop where we are using the new 2026 – 2028 In Colors. I have made my card using the lovely Artisan Sketched Garden dsp to make my card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the artisan vases card using the following supplies:

Hydrangea Hue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Basic White – 5¼” by 4”
Basic White – 4⅛” by 2¼”
Basic Black – 4⅛” by ¼”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾ “- for the inside

I ran the strip of Basic White card through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Lazy Daisy Embossing Folder and glued it to the Hydrangea Hue card front. I added the strip of Basic Black card above it.
