Wishing You Well!

I have another lovely card with the Old Pier Technique Junkie Stamp http://techniquejunkies.com/old-pier/.  I think it is a beautiful stamp and could be used for many occasions.   The background panel started with a white piece of card stock and then -- of course - Iused the Antique Glimmers technique, I used three shades of blue and a purple.  I wish the purple would have shown up a little more. 

I inked up the stamp with Versafine Black ink, then covered that ink with clear detail embossing powder, Then I used my heat gun and embossed it.  That made the details stand out more than just stamping with black ink.Then I used a Signo white gel pen and highlighted the waves in place all over the water.  That really added a touch of realism to the scene.

The sentiment comes from the Technique Junkie stamp set Sentimental Sayings http://techniquejunkies.com/sentimental-sayings/.   I stamped with Versafine black ink and heat embossed it as described above.  I ran it through my Xyron machine and layered it on blue card stock.  A few blue square rhinestones to embellish and it is done!

I hope this day finds you well and eager to stamp!
