Summer Card Camp 2 - Week 2 - Day 2

Two cards today!

I am enjoying the embossing techniques.  Most of my stamps are Tim Holtz and I thought these would work.  The photo does not show the shine from the embossing, but it did resist the distress pen shading.  I colored some silver sequins the blue color.  A trick I have discovered is I use a metal dental pick and put it in the center hole and that holds the sequin while I color it. They are so tiny and uncooperative, this holds them down.  My fingers are no longer colored too!

Thank you for visiting . . .
