Subtle Texture

A friend of mine is having a baby... she wants a girl... she has a boy, so she wants a girl.. I told her girls are trouble...LOL. She doesn't know what the sex is but I made her this card anyway... I used a dot stencil to add modeling paste that I tinted with distress ink (spun sugar) and layered it on... I had so much fun.. but I had paste everywhere.




I then inked the sides of the card after the texture paste dried using my blending tool with the same color ink. 

I inked some card stock layering it twice to make it a little darker so I could make a frame. I  used  circle dies of sizes very close together. I then cut a circle where I wanted the little hand to show through

The hand is a stamp from stamping up (kid prints) in the definitely decorative section. I used a stamp from stampabilites called "Palm of His Hand. The verse is Isaiah 49:16

So just in case she has a boy... I made her this one.



I want to link this card up to Texture challenge at simon says stamp, because I added a little texture

I also want to link up to Monochrome at CASology, because I like the tone on tone feel of this card

I also want to link up to Make your MARK at Addicted to Stamps, because I made a mark

I also want to link up to http://thepinkelephantchallenge.blogspot.ca, because what better birthday than the first one.

  2. Beautiful and clever cards here and love your funny post about your friend wanting a girl. My sister had a baby before Christmas and her older daughter (3) insisted she wanted a 'boy - sister'! She got a baby brother which is I think what she meant!
    Thanks for playing along at ATSM
