Jay Gee's Nook #24

When I saw the current Jay Gee's Nook challenge:

two things caught my eye: the windows in the double doors and the gradient color in the shower curtain. I combined those and made this:

I embossed the Hero Arts Lace background stamp with white EP onto white card stock. Then I did direct-to-paper with several Distress inks. I love how this turned out!

Thanks for stopping by!

Note: The Ranger Distress seasonal inks are now available individually (yay!), but I couldn't get Inlinkz to pick them up, so I've included the seasonal bundles instead.

    There's a lace background? I can have lace without actual lace? IT MUST BE MINE.

    Since I'm rather a sucker for both color gradients and resist, I'm not sure how much it means to say that I think your card is beautiful... but I do. Think it's beautiful.

    I was SO lucky to catch the spring & summer bundles on sale while I was on vacation - those are such awesome colours. I should take mine out to really play & get inky - and that lace background is so stunning. Love the rounded corners!
