Hi Again Stampers!
I just love the CCMC207 sketch at Create with Connie and Mary this week! As soon
as I saw it, I knew that I wanted to create my own panel with stamps as one of
the layers and of course, even though I wanted to create a bit of a masculine card, I ended up with paper lace, satin ribbon and a few pearls:-)
To create this card:
Mask the diagonal lines on a piece of
Whisper White card and using Basic Black Classic Ink, repeatedly stamp the
peacock feather from Fine Feathers. Using a Sponge Dauber, lightly
sponge Bashful Blue Classic Ink over the entire panel.
Use an Aqua Painter with ink from
the pads and watercolor the Pacific Point, Soft Suede and Gumball Green to
create the layers of the feather. Use
the Color Spritzer Tool with a Pacific Point marker to add the splatter effect.
Lightly spray the entire panel with Frost
White Shimmer Paint spray...FYI- I was a bit too heavy on the shimmer but since the real peacock feathers have a shine...:-)
Cut the panel and mount onto Basic Black
cardstock.
***NOTE***You possibly could just stamp
the images in a row but originally I was going to try to make a one layer card
and decided against it at the last minute…
Use the Big Shot™ with the Vintage
Wallpaper Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss the DSP background
(from Comfort Café) and lightly sand with the Sanding Block.
Add the embossed lace panel, black satin
ribbon bow, sentiment and pearls to finish off the card.

Heaven

Thanks again for stopping
by! I hope you like this card and if you
have the time let me know... at first my husband thought that the main panel had "eyes" on it- then he put his glasses on- lol!! Have a great weekend and have fun stamping!
I do like this card--LOTS. The texture and the "eyes" are so striking. Awesome job at bringing this sketch to life. Smiles, Elizabeth
