I wanted to try the faux embossed background idea using die cut words, so this was my attempt :D Its using the scripty thanks die by Lawn Fawn and a few stamp sets from Craft Asylum... I really love the way it came out, I had originally planned for it to be simpler, but I still like the final result :D All the flowers and leaves were stamped using memento dew drop ink pads, they were a more solid style of stamp, so I stamped them in solid colours, then added a sketchy outline using a super fine pitt pen :D I really love this look of the overlayed outline slightly off set from the main image :D I'm hoping to do a few more cards in this style, the only down side is the amount of times you need to die cut the word lol, I think I used about 8 white ones for the background, then from the main sentiment in black, I die-cut three and stacked them up to make it a more substantial element :D
