You Bring Out the Best in Everyone- An Inspiration Photo and Sketch Challenge :-)



Hi Again Stampers!

Here is another card that I had an opportunity to create last night using the PP201 Paper Players Sketch Challenge along with the Just Add Ink JAI219 Just AddInspiration Photo (although I am too late to link up to the JAI219 Challenge- still struggling to figure out the deadline time in Australia to EST-lol!). 
 
For some reason as I designed this card, I neglected to use a circle for the sentiment- usually you can substitute shapes on a sketch challenge so I hope this banner for the sentiment versus a circle will not disqualify me :-) 

Again, if you have not had a chance to check out both sites yet, I would encourage you to do so- great job by all!!

To create this card:

Using the Embossing Buddy®, de-static a piece of the Back to Black Designer Series Paper (DSP) and stamp the World of Dreams image using Versamark™ ink.  Apply Stampin’ Emboss® Black Embossing Powder and heat with the Heat Tool.     

Trim the DSP panel and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock.  Adhere the panel onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock, trim and adhere to a piece of Basic Black cardstock, trim again and mount onto the Whisper White card base.

Create the banners using strips from Back to Black DSP and Moonlight DSP stack (the Hello Honey color is a scrap from the Moonlight DSP stack that I had previously embossed using the Big Shot™ with the new Zig Zag Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder and lightly sanded) using the Hexagon Punch and layering each onto Basic Black cardstock (punching the points again with the Hexagon Punch).

Add to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.  Add a strip of Basic Black cardstock with a few Rhinestones at the top of the banners.

Stamp the sentiment onto Whisper White cardstock using Memento™ Tuxedo Black ink, trim and create banner points using the Hexagon Punch. Mount onto Basic Black cardstock (again I used a scrap piece a bit smaller than the sentiment layer, creating a banner with the Hexagon Punch) and add a few of the embossed scraps from the Hello Honey DSP that I had left over from the banner above.

Add the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals® and add the strip of Rhinestones to finish off the card.

Stamp Sets: World of Dreams

Ink: Versamark™, Memento™ Tuxedo Black

Paper/Cardstock:  Whisper White, Basic Black, Designer Series Paper- Back to Black, Moonlight DSP Stack

  1. Beautiful card, Julie. Love the background paper, and the image and expression really fit one another beautifully. That color combo is always a winner, too.
