An old favourite
Here's another card which is going into our gallery at CAS Mix Up where the theme for the month is Emboss Resist.
I have had this stamp set for ever - It is by Chocolate Baroque but back then the company was called Elusive Images!
The wild meadow we can see from the back of our house is full of wild flowers and native grasses at the mo and this stamp could have been done to imitate the scene.
The meadow framed stamp was stamped and heat embossed in black.
Used a small coin to make a moon mask and simply ink blended the background in some of my fave shades.
I then used a rectangle mask to cover it up and did some secondary stamping in grey ink either side.
A card that I was pleased with for a change and the theme at TIOT is Summer Blooms so am linking this.
We are having some fabulous weather -even though it is a little too hot for me to actually sit outside in it - it doesn't stop me feeling happy when I see the lovely blue skies and sunshine!
Hope the sun is shining where you are and thanks for stopping by! x

This is an absolute stunner Viv...LOVE it! Great inking an da super stamp and I like the way you have extended the image beyond the frame. Yes enjoying the sunshine to a point...but the garden is suffering and that saddens me. xx
A beautiful stamp, Viv, and a gorgeous inked background! I love how you've stamped either side of the main image!
WOW! Gorgeous summery skies over your wildflower garden, Viv. LOVE the contrast between the black against those beautiful colours of the background. Fabulous design with your subtle stamping of more wildflowers on either side of your main panel. What a lovely view you must have out your back window. xx
A beautiful card and what a brilliant idea to add the 'shadow' stamping to echo the main image. I reckon I just might have that self same stamp in my collection from Elusive Images days 😉
What a beautiful card Viv! I still have som Elusive Images stamps hiding in my stash.
Beautiful card Viv....love your gorgeous background Viv...your silhousette image really 'pop' off the page, hope your managing to stay cool

Your sky is lovely and the silhouette image is beautiful. What a terrific view you have from the back of your house. I never thought of using a coin for a mask, how clever.
gorgeous Viv, beautiful background blending ♥
Love this one Viv, such wonderful ink blending and brilliant contrast with the black. I like the added interest from the secondary stamping too. Great job xx
A truly lovely card Viv. Nice and colourful. Yep - grateful for the sunshine if not the high temp’s xxx
Gorgeous stamped and heat embossed framed black silhouette meadow image, Viv. LOVE your sponged sky and masking with a coin for a beautiful moon too. Adding the softly stamped in grey stamping next to your main image too..such a nice effect and still keeping your card Clean and Simple. So pleased you added another beautiful Emboss Resist card to CAS Mix Up gallery:-) Love and Hugs...Nancy
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
I love this Viv, the design is gorgeous! Hope you are well and coped with the heat. We have finally got rain!
A fabulous card Viv, I love the gorgeous shading behind the silhouette. You've really made the image 'pop' with the subtle background stamping.
