Hi again-I'm on a roll today!! One more card for you, again using the retired God's Blessings stamp set. I love this set and am so glad I got it when it was available as it it has some beautiful sentiments suitable for many different occasions.
I used a mask I had in my stash and ran it through the big shot onto a 6x6 piece of whisper white cardstock. I then used a blending tool and Old Olive ink and gently brought out the raised design, blending from the outer edges and leaving the centre white. Once I had acheived the right amount and depth of colour I stamped the sentiment in the centre using Riding Hood Red Ink and matted it onto a square piece of textured cardstock a quarter of an inch bigger than the white panel, before mounting onto an 8x8 card and adding a satin ribbon bow to finish.
I've entered this card into a challenge over at http://sweetstampinchallengeblog.blogspot.com/
Hope you like!
