Hello again. I will be spending some time in my craft room this weekend, and this is the first card I made today. It is using a range of different techniques – embossing, colouring, die cutting, stamping – but think I have kept it quite clean….
The rectangular card base has a layer of Lawn Fawn ‘Narwhal’ card (loving that grey card) then layered with white card which has been embossed using a Sweet poppy metallic stencil.
Now, I may have made a little mistake in using this stencil…… It is quite a large metal stencil, and when I took it out of my die cutting machine – it was a little bent! Well – not just a little! It was curved so much, I may not be able to use it as a stencil. I think the pressure and layers were too much. I straightened it a little, but I didn’t want to bend it too much, so I may be brave and run it through the opposite way – just to see if I can even it out a little more……I’ll let you know.
The Altenew ‘Hello Sunshine’ flowers were stamped and heat embossed, coloured with my Zigs, and die cut with the matching die set. I arranged them underneath and on top of the banners, for a little dimension, but not too much.
The banners are from Sue Wilson, with the sentiment from ‘Hello Sunshine’ heat embossed with white onto the aqua card.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
Freshly Made Sketches – sketch
Color Throwdown – aqua, orange, grey
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge – layer it up
Cardz 4 Galz – anything but square
The challenges I will be entering are:
However, I soon realised that the more I added the flowers, then the more these lines would be covered….I hope it still counts…..
