DTGD15jbgreendawn Vintage Happy Birthday

Hi Stampers!!

Even though the official 2015 Dare to Get Dirty Challenge week is now over, I wanted to share another card that I created as a sample maker for my good friend, Stacy’s DTGD15 jbgreendawn Challenge :-)

***FYI*** You can still create cards throughout the year and link to the DTGD15 challenges although the official challenge is over and you would not be eligible for the drawing for any of the vendor prizes  :-)

Again, one major rule of participation in the Dare To Get Dirty Challenges is that the actual challenge details are secret to all except the Fan Club Members…I can share the card but not the details on the actual challenge (unfortunately, any details on this card will reveal the challenge details, so if you have any questions, please let me know in the comment area).  

I am also linking this card to the Splitcoaststampers’ F4A262 “Let’s Get Krafty” Challenge (see gallery here). 

The background panel on this card was created by stamping the En Francais (retired background stamp) using Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink, embossing with the Parisian (Tin Holtz®) Folder that was inked with Ranger® Tim Holtz® Tea Dye Distress Ink before embossing, applying Tea Dye and Picket Fence Distress Stains, then applying with my fingers diluted Frost White Shimmer Paint and finally Gelatos Iced Chai (or Iced Coffee- I forgot to label them). 

Stamp Sets: Express Yourself , En Francais (both SU!); Girl Image from Crafty Individuals CI-065

Paper: Kraft, Basic Black

Ink: Stāz-On® Jet Black, Ranger® Tim Holtz® (TH) Tea Dye Distress Ink, TH Picket Fence & Tea Dye Distress Stain, Frost White & Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint, Gelatos® Iced Chai

Accessories: Big Shot™, MFT Royal Rose Dies, Parisian TH Embossing Folder, MS Leaf Punch, Crochet Lace (from my stash)

Thanks again for visiting! I hope to share a few more of the samples for the DTGD15 hostess challenges shortly.
