“It’s a Boy” Diagonal Rays

Here is another 8.5×11″ card my cousin requested. I continued to use an older Creative Memories patterned paper pack. I also sketched out two clouds and stamped some polka dots on them. I then embossed it with some clear embossing powder. Originally I was going to keep the clouds white, but when I was experimenting with a blue ink pad I accidentally dropped it face down onto one of my clouds…so I decided to ink the entire thing. Since it was embossed, the dots remained un-inked. It turned out to be a pretty cool effect for the clouds. I added a few buttons here and there for some detailing as well as some embroidery floss to “hang” the clouds.
