Hello! We're focusing on Mixed Media creations this week at Topflight Stamps. I made a card using paints, ink and embossing powder. On a piece of white cardstock, I painted an ombre effect with two PaperArtsy Fresco Finish Chalk Paints: Blah Mange and Sugar Plum. When it was dry, I stamped the Creative Expressions Vintage Plume stamp with Versafine Clair Nocturne (black) ink. While the ink was wet, I sprinkled on WOW! embossing powder in Platinum and hit it with a heat tool. The effect is so cool! Hopefully you can see it in the second card photo below. On a separate piece of scrap cardstock, I stamped the Woodware Viola stamp with the same Nocturne ink. Using a circle punch, I punched out two postmarks that were part of the Viola image, inked the edges, and attached to the card front. A seam binding bow tied around the painted ombre panel was topped with one other piece of stamped ephemera I had on my desk.

Wow, this is stunning! The bird is gorgeous, but your ribbon and bow---perfection!
Pretty color and a very pretty card!
Oooh, such a lovely stamp and card! I know how striking the embossing must be in person when you can not only see, but feel, the texture. I'm a fan of both Creative Expressions and Woodware and you combined them beautifully here.
