Happy Friday my friends! Today I've been hard at work after two days that had me out of the office a ton. Between me and two of the girls, there were four doctor's appts. (nothing serious, just ear aches, chirpractor and cavity fillings). Good grief! I'm happy to be in my stamp room today.
While I was out and about, I told a friend of mine that I signed up for an art class in July. I must have been on the edge of my seat telling her about it. She looked at me with a funny look on her face and said, “You'd probably choose doing that over a day at the spa, wouldn't you?”.
I almost fell out of my chair laughing. Well, DUH! Yeah! hahahaha!
What about you? Art/paper crafting/mixed media class or Spa?
Today's card was made with another great Penny Black large scale stamp and stencil. Just like the one I did in my newsletter this week.
If you didn't catch it, you can view that video tutorial and all three cards HERE on StampNation.
If you haven't subscribed to my newslettet yet, you will get weekly project inspiration that I share only with newsletter subscribers.
For this card, I used Tattered Angel's Glimmer Mist and a stencil to make the background. Then, I used the Suncatcher stencil and sponged versamark over it. Next, I covered it in black embossing powder and heated it. This gave a neat shadow effect to the flower.
An Embossed background and a banner with a white embossed greeting finish off this card.
Supplies:
- Special Wishes Stamp Set (Penny Black)
- Cardstock: Marina Mist, Whisper White, Basic Black (SU)
- Ink: Versamark
- Accessories: Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, White Embossing Powder, Chevron Embossing Folder
