Good evening ladies,
I wanted to share this lovely card with you made by Lisa Freeman. The stamp set used is from the Holiday Mini Catalog. It's called French Foliage (#120845 wood mount and #121166 Clear Mount).
The technique she used to get the colors on the foliage is called the "babywipe" technique. Take a babywipe and put drops of reinker on it. When you have good coverage, use the babywipe as a stamp pad. It works great and you can get some beautiful colors. Another very elegant feature that you may not see from the picture is the shimmer this card has. It is done by taking our shimmer paint and put it into a small spray bottle (about a 2 ounce bottle) and add 1/4 teaspoon of our shimmer paint and fill the rest of the bottle with rubbing alcohol. Shake well and spray on your card for that gorgeous shimmering look. The Champagne Mist was used.
