8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
Hello readers! I have been busy over the weekend creating for NSD (National Scrapbook Day May 5th). I did several layouts plus some cards, all part of the challenges on SplitcoastStampers and A Cherry On Top craft sites.
I made this card using a technique shared with us on SplitcoastStampers. It is called Embossing with Watercolor.
I used oxide inks and put the ink on my glass mat, sprayed with water, then with brush put dabs of it on my watercolor paper. I let it dry. Then I sprayed with pearl ex gold. Let it dry again. Then inked up my TH Paris embossing folder with London Fog gray ink. I put my watercolor paper in the embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot. Then I cut it down for my card. I took photos of the process, but can't find them! LOL I will share them when I find them.
Here is my ticket to Bleubeard & Elizabeths TSFT over at Altered Book Lover. We went out to eat last week to Longhorns. We love the luncheon special Grilled Chicken & Strawberry Salad with side. Hubby got the seafood soup and I got the loaded sweet potato! Delicious! I brought home salad; of course I filled up on the bread and butter. Great bread!
I have been walking early in the morning as it has been in the high 90s the last few days. So, home by nine! Still, I don't have enough hours in the day! Thank you for stopping by. I love hearing from you.
See you next time.

Hi Sharon, beautiful card that you made, and your food looks delicious
Happy T
Strawberry salad sounds delicious! That's a beautiful card you created.
Happy T day!
Your card is gorgeous, and that's a technique I've never heard of before. It's a great one though. I need to try it. And my husband and I love to go to LOnghorn for lunch too. It's one of the few places to eat near his office, plus it's quick and reasonable. Have a super T day and week ahead. hugs-Erika
Very pretty card. I like the subtle color gradations.

A great card and such yummy food (mine was so boring again). Happy T-Day!
What a fabulous card. Those oxides are amazing and I love that embossing folder. Nice technique.
Never heard of Longhorn's. I live in a bubble, I guess. That salad looks wonderful. Thanks for this fun entry you have given us for T this Tuesday, dear Sharon.
It's been ages since I ate in a Longhorns, but I used to like it and your photo reminds me why :)
Happy T Tuesday!
Strawberry salad sounds nice. I've done a similar technique but in a different way, and I think I have that embossing folder too! I must look for it. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx

Love that card, Sharon - I need to try that technique. Love the colors and designs. I really like that salad at Longhorn too. We need to go there soon. Happy T-day a bit late. Hugz too.
Hi Sharon! I think I'm with Larry on the seafood soup. Our nearest LongHorn is in Sprinfield 2 hrs away... on the opposite end of the strip mall from Hobby Lobby. Convenient? LOL
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I miss you. Hugs & Creative Blessings!
Oh... thanks for sharing the technique. Loved the card!
