This card was made with the digi image from My Favorite Stamps. The image is called Meet me at the Cafe. I colored the image with copics. I actually made this card a while back when I was newer to coloring but I still like how it turned out. The buttons are from my stash. The leaves are Martha Stewart punches. I added some clouds to the background, but they seem rather light in this picture so hopefully you can see them. The brown background paper was embossed with an embossing folder I made my very own self. The embossing isn't as distinctive as store bought, however, it was fun to make and now I have a leaf embossing folder. There is also some faux stitching around the page and some bling cause I LOVE bling!
Here is what my embossing folder looks like. I used cardboard from the back of paper backs for the main part. Then I used my punches with the cardboard to create the look I wanted. This was NOT easy. The punches were hard to punch out. However, I love it!
Hope you enjoyed today's card!!!
