Speaking of bliss ... I was playing with the new "Bliss" set from the upcoming Sale-a-brations catalogue. Vintage isn't my usual style but I thought I'd give it a "go" since the swirl just screams vintage. I'm not lovin' the card but I do love the set. Need to play a little more ...
I also had a few hours to play around with my new Letterpress from the Occasions Mini. Hmmmm - not sure about it yet. My first attempt didn't get the debossing very deep so I tried again and put a shim under the platform tab. That gave a deeper impression. I do love the crispness of the image! Using craft ink gives the best results but increases the drying time. Patience isn't one of my better virtues so I smudged it a bit. I tried a few different color combinations trying to get a "masculine" Valentines day card. Not sure this one is "manly" enough. Craig says no ribbon, glitter or buttons on a "guy" card are allowed. He say's this one is still too girlie. Guess I'll keep playing with it ...
Hope you had a good weekend!
