Hi
Stampers!!
I
have been having fun creating cards this past weekend and decided to create one
more card using the CASology #157 “Wings” theme along with the Just Add Ink #273 Color Challenge, As You See It #98 Sketch Challenge and the Splitcoaststampers' WT538 Sequins Challenge (see details here and gallery here).
Again,
if you have not already done so, I hope you will find the time to visit the
above challenge sites to check out the wonderful Design Team samples as well as
the inspiration from their galleries!
To create
this card:
Ink the owl image from the Lawn Fawn set, You’re A Hoot with Blackberry Classic Ink,
the branch image with Crumb Cake Classic Ink, the leaves with Bermuda Bay
Classic Ink and stamp all of the images onto Whisper White cardstock.
Use the
Big Shot™ with the Lawn Fawn You’re A Hoot coordinating dies to cut out the
images.
Ink the crosshatch
stamp from You’ve Got This with Smoky Slate Classic Ink and stamp onto the
Positively Chevron background stamp, “huff” to re-moisten the ink on the
background stamp and stamp onto a Whisper White cardstock panel (this technique
is called “Kissing”- love that technique name :-))
Stamp the
sentiment with Blackberry Bliss Classic Ink, trim the panel and mount onto a
piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock, trim and mount onto Blackberry Bliss cardstock
and trim once more to mount onto the Bermuda Bay card base.
Adhere a
bit of looped Natural Linen thread and the leaves to the card front, mount the
owl and branch using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Add a few
Bermuda Bay Sequins to finish off the card.

Julie, this is utterly adorable! Love the 'kissed' background, that looks fabulously grunge-y. You make our challenge colours look like they were created just for your card. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week. :)
