Tasteful Touches Embossed on Good Taste

I've been working a bit more lately with our Designer Series Papers and doing more with them than just using them as backgrounds. They are so much more versatile than that. You can alter them with ink, embossing powder, and embossing paste, and for today's card, I embossed the feather image from Tasteful Touches stamp set on the In Good Taste DSP then sponged over it with different coloured inks to show up the embossed image better, but the texture of the original pattern of DSP remained intact.

If you are familiar with the In Good Taste Designer Paper, can you guess which design this is?

• I stamped the feather image randomly over the DSP panel with Versamark ink and covered the images with White Stampin' Emboss Powder. Then I heat set them using the Heat Tool.
• I used three different inks to sponge colour over the embossing and background: from the bottom up - Smoky Slate, Seaside Spray and Soft Sea Foam.

Smoky Slate

Whisper White

Seaside Spray

Soft Sea Foam

• I stamped the little plant image on Soft Sea Foam cardstock using Memento ink and used paper snips to fussy cut the image out.
• The sentiment is from the same Tasteful Touches stamp set and I stamped it in Memento ink on Whisper White background and die cut it and the Soft Sea Foam Label behind it using the Tasteful Labels Dies that coordinate with the stamp set. Before gluing the sentiment label to it's green backing, I slipped in the little plant and a vellum sprig that I had punched using the Sprig Punch.
• I coiled some Linen Thread on the card front under where I would be mounting the label and secured it with glue dots. Then I mounted the sentiment labels with Dimensionals.
