Off white Bday and TY

Love to do blocking on my cards. It just adds such a clean feel to the design. I won this lovely stamp made by La Blanche. I used distress inks Frayed Burlap on all the edges and for the stamp too. The flower in white is by SEI. I use wax paper and my blending tool from Ranger to ink my edges. The ink that was on the wax paper and a dab from the Tea Dye ink pad sprayed with water was the source of my ink for the flower. I just took the stamp and smeared it around the wet mess on my wax paper and stamped the image onto white cardstock. I hope that makes sense. That is how I got the flower to look the way it is.
Other supplies include: Cuttlebug dry embossing, ribbon by Queen and Co and HB stamp by ES.
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
Aud Sentiments(W#35)-Anything Goes
Craft us Crazy(W#15)-Anything Goes
Paper Crafting Journey(TH#17)-Anything Goes
Fresh Brewed Designs(W#61)-Emboss it


This second card is a different dimension than I normally do. It's almost 6 inches by 4 inches. The stamps I used on this card are by Fiskars. The chipboard sentiment is by SEI with black and white cardstock by Pioneer and grey CS by SU.
I'm entering this card into the challenge at Paper Pretties to create your own background paper.

Thanks for stopping by. I have to go to bed. I have a busy Friday ahead of me. God Bless!!
