I used a Hero Art background stamp and stamped it in Versamark ink. I then masked off the top with a negative spaced heart. I sprinkled with some dark pink powder. Once I removed the mask, added Sparkle powder and then heated. I had received a die cut from Robyn in my latest CCC swap so I black embossed it three times and then added it with a sentiment from Winnie & Walter. The heart looked a bit indistinct so went around it with a black gel pen. Added a few clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh
My second card is my Happy Accident.
My second card is my Happy Accident.
I was attempting to cut out a panel using a plain outer die and an inner intricate die. I accidentally put the outer die upside down so it embossed rather than cut, and the inner one cut as it should have. Luckily I had used a patterned piece big enough to use on a card base. I stamped the Quietfire Designs sentiment and added an embossed and die cut butterfly. I'm very happy with this happy accident.

Two beauties, Dawn! Love the second one best; accidents do produce some surprising results at times.
i think happy accidents are the best - especially when they turn out as great as yours did!!
Some of the best designs happen by accident! Love your cards and those fun techniques!
What a great 'accident' - I guess that's what they mean when it is said there are no mistakes - just opportunities to learn. Lovely cards Dawn
Blessings

Lovely cards, Dawn! Your "accident" is a wonderful card!
it just goes to show you that there are no accidents when you have talent! Two beautiful cards Dawn!
What a really cool technique with that cool two-toned embossing. And that second card! You should make "mistakes" like that more often! It's absolutely stunning!
