Mojo Monday Meets Shadow Stamping

Hi and welcome to my second...er, third post of the day. If you haven't seen who won my purge goodies from the hop last week, see this post here. If you're looking for my Zva Creative Blog Hop project, click here. Today's card is based off of Mojo Monday's sketch and Splitcoast's Try A New Technique challenge, which is to shadow stamp. I was skeptical of this technique at first, but after trying it out, I really like the results. Check it out below:


Here's a close up of the two step, or shadow stamping:


And this is just a close up of the ribbon/heart accent:


I purchased these Lattice Rectangles over the weekend and really wanted to use them, however, I made my card a square so I glued two panels together to make a square shape:


I tried to get the rainbow out of the picture, but after two attempts at not finding the light source, I decided that it was meant to be there. :)

And here's the Mojo sketch I used:
