Ode to Erin...

My friend, Erin, is the guest blogger at Do More with Less & she's given us a technique to try! She's posted a tutorial on the faux letterpress technique & wants us to play along!  So here's what I came up with:

I've used some Creative Memories lavender paper, and letterpressed with the PTI woodgrain plate & SU! perfect plum ink. I used my cricut (storybook cart) to cut some letters from black cardstock & then glittered them up with MS black glitter (I LOOOOOVE that stuff!). I used a smokey shadow cardbase & have used some divine May Arts 1/8 velvet *yum*!
 And in true Erin fashion, I've tried to combine some challenges!! :D I've used the Play Date Cafe colors, Wee Memories is having a Halloween challenge, the Ribbon Carousel says Anything Goes this week, and I see a LOT of texture- so let's add this to the Moxie Fab world Textured to Perfection! (I KNOW that makes you smile, Erin!!!)
whew! Thanks so much for stopping by! I'd love to hear what you think!
