Papertrey May Blog Hop Challenge

Its PTI blog hop time!!!

This month the theme is flowers, and I've been dying to try the emboss resist tricks that Heather Nichols showed this week on her blog. 


I used a retired SU! set called Worn Flannel for the background, Friends Til The End for the sentiment and Botanical Silhouettes for the flowers

To create the look I stamped the flannel background first in crumb cake (stamped off first to lighten it up).  Then I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso.  Finally I used Versamark and clear EP to emboss the flowers over the rest of the stamping.  I sponged Pear Pizazz and Poppy Parade over the embossed areas to make them pop

Thanks for stopping by!
