Hi Stampers!
Since October is
Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Hand Stamped Sentiments chose to have a “Think
Pink” for their HSSTP88 Challenge and I decided to create a card for this
challenge using the SSC225 sketch from Stamping 411.
Since I had stamped one of the images on an angle, I modified the sketch slightly with angling the ribbon as well:-) That is one thing that I love about sketch challenges, you can modify them slightly to use them for inspiration!
To create this
card:
Use the Embossing
Buddy® to de-static a piece of Pink Pirouette Designer Series Paper and stamp
the dress form image with Versamark™ ink and the round seal image for the “sentiment”. Apply Stampin’ Emboss Black Embossing Powder
and heat with the Heat Tool. Once the
embossing powder has cooled, lightly sponge Melon Mambo around the images.
Using Basic Black
Classic Ink, stamp the remaining collage images (stamping off the paper first
for some of the images to give depth) on the piece with the dress form. Use the Distressing Tool along with your
fingernail to distress the edges and sponge with Basic Black.
Mount onto Basic
Black cardstock, add the layers (previously embossed with the Square Lattice
and Finial Press Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folders) and finish off the
card with the 5/8” Basic Black Satin Ribbon bow and Antique Brad.
Stamp Sets: Established Elegance
Ink: Versamark™, Basic Black, Melon Mambo
Cardstock: Pretty
in Pink, Basic Black, Pink Pirouette DSP
Accessories:
Big Shot™, Finial Press and Square Lattice Textured Impressions™ Embossing
Folders, 1” and 1 ¼” Circle Punches, Antique Brad, Embossing Buddy®, Heat Tool,
Stampin’ Emboss® Black Embossing Powder, 5/8” Basic Black Satin Ribbon
I personally know several women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer, so this month has been a prayerful month for me as I lift these dear women up to the Lord in prayer. I am praying for a complete healing and that their lives would glorify the Lord!
Thanks again for
stopping by and God Bless!
love the look of the black ep on the pink!
