This is my card for this technique; a birthday card for my younger brother.

Blue Butterfly

Blue is becoming one of my favorite colors. The background was stamped with one of the image from Posh Asian #2 Stamp Set. H20's were used to color the Asian butterfly on matte coat cardstock. The Posh sentiment from ATC Greeting Set #2. 

Framed Fish

Really an easy card to make using two of the stamp images from Pacific Northwest Stamp Set and two Dee Gruenig Blending Blox ink pads. Shades of Gray and Shades of Brown.

Rooster No. 2

I stamped the Posh Asian Rooster and flowers on dabber paint background. The base of the card was inked with a flower stamp from Asian Set, dry embossed and then highlighted with blending blox ink pad.
Posh Asian #1 Rubber Stamp Set available unmounted or mounted on EZ-Mount.

Music Card

The background was made using a dry embossing and debossing with stamped music keyboard. The woman image was inked and colored with Copic markers. Die cuts from Quickutz and Sizzix were used on this card.

Asian Card #2

I had fun creating this card with the rooster image from Posh Asian #1
The rooster was inked with Marvy Brush Markers onto fiber cardstock, the quote was inked using Posh mini ATC stamps.
The frame around the quote was made with a Sizzix die cut. Rhinestones from HL.
I used scrapbook paper for the base of this card.

Framed Flowers

I enjoyed making this card using Stamp Set from Asian #1

Framed Iris

This is one of my favorite stamps on the Posh Watercolor Stamp Set #1. The background was made with Golden Paints, the iris was stamped twice to give it the feel that it has a shadow.

The floral stamped frame from the Watercolor set was inked with blending blox. The flower image from Funky Flowers Set was inked with marvy brush markers and the sentiment was inked with marvy black brush marker. The frame was mat to black card stock. A coordinating folded cardstock was used to complete this card.
