Hollyhocks thanks {card} Scrapy Land challenge #2

Hi! It's time for the second challenge on the Scrapy Land blog. This challenge is to incorporate heat embossing to your die cut shape(s). 

To create the multi-colored flowers, I cut the Hollyhocks three different times, each using a different color patterned paper; green for the stalks and two pinks. I used the green die as the base and then carefully cut the flowers from the pink papers and adhered them over the green base. I then used a clear ink pad along with clear embossing powder to the flowers (the stems have a bit of heat embossing, but not much as the ink basically stuck to the more raised pink areas). 

It was a little work, but well worth the effort!

"thanks" was cut with a white cardstock and heat embossed using clear ink and clear embossing powder. The end result is almost a plastic effect and looks really cool since I didn't use a heavy-weight cardstock. 

supplies:

dies from Scrapy Land: Lawn Fawn - Scripty Thanks Dies and Impression Obsession Dies - Hollyhocks

white cardstock

patterned paper and butterfly sticker: Echo Park
