This card is for the todays Sketch Challenge SC166 found here: https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=330124
Supplies:
Stamps: Basic Grey, Stampin Up Trees Three (flowers) |
Paper: Whisper White, Cool Caribbean, Taken with Teal |
Ink: Ranger inks Lettuce, Stream, Mountain Rose, Cranberry |
Accessories: Flower Punches, Brads, Sponge, Heat Gun, Clear Embossing Powder, Versamark Pad, Always Artichoke marker, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Sharpie Silver Paint Pen |
Stamp vine by loading stamp with Versamark and then Lettuce ink and stamping on Whisper White card stock.
Heat emboss image using clear embossing powder. Note: I keep my embossing powder in a sandwich sized plastic container so I don’t have to try to put the embossing powder back into the tiny container it came in.
Stamp bird by first loading stamp with Versamark and then Cranberry ink. Heat emboss it using clear embossing powder.
Stamp flowers from Stampin’ Up Trees Three set by first loading stamp with Versamark and then Mountain Rose ink. Heat emboss using clear embossing powder.
Crop image and sponge on Stream ink using a circular motion with the sponge. It is ok to go over the embossed images with the sponge. The ink will not stick to the embossed images.
Give dimension to the vines by highlighting the under sides of the vine with an Always Artichoke marker.
Sponged additional Stream ink on bottom corners of card stock.
Used a Sharpie Silver Paint Pen and run it around the edges of my main image card stock and the layering card stock pieces. This is very easy to do and gives a look of additional layers without the weight and bulkiness.
Used a small Cuttlebug embossing folder to emboss top and bottom of Cool Caribbean card stock layer.
Sponged Stream ink on bottom of Taken with Teal card stock layer.
Used the Sharpie Silver paint pen again to go around the the very outside of the assembled card.
Added some flower punches and brads.
Finished card!
