I Dare You to Resist!

Our challenge this week at Our Creative Corner is hosted by the uber talented Lisa Minkler of You Made Me Ink!  She asks us to create a card or project using some form of resist technique.  In your post, please explain which technique you used and include this extra; your card or project needs to include a pair of wings (animal, angel, bugs, or by themselves..you pick as long as it has wings!)  Lisa has provided links for some inspiration: How To Use Your Scraps & 4 Resist Techniques.

Here is my design team project using the emboss resist technique.  Seeing the image POP after the ink was applied is magical!
This is one technique I sadly have never tried before but will definitely play with again.  I LOVE the effect!  I even did a little masking, too.

Hello Marcy... my friend!!!!
How clever are you to try a technique for the first time and come out with this delightful piece of work. It is a WOW from me, the colour palette you chose is soft and warm, it invites you in, the resist is wonderful and adds so much texture, I love it.
Smiles:)
