Hi Again Friends!
This card was created for Splitcoaststampers’ HYCCT1501B Dini’s “Lend A Hand” Challenge along with the Create with Connie and MaryCCMC375 Sketch and the Just Add Ink JAI282 Inspiration Challenge.
I do not have any stamps with hands but remembered this
retired Stampin’ Up! stamp from the Handmade with Love II Angel Policy stamp
set, so I did a bit of creative stamping :-)
To create this card:
Directly apply the Smoky Slate Classic Ink pad to the interior
of the Happy Hearts Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of
Whisper White cardstock.
Trim the embossed panel, use the ink splatter stamp from
Gorgeous Grunge to apply Melon Mambo Classic Ink to the background and mount
onto a piece of Basic Gray cardstock.
Add the Silver Cord across the panel and adhere the panel to a
piece of Melon Mambo cardstock, trim and mount again onto the Whisper White
card base.
Cut a few pieces of sticky note paper to cover the top and
bottom of the hand image stamp and ink with Melon Mambo Classic Ink, remove the
masks and stamp onto Whisper White cardstock.
Repeat this step for three images and cut out using the Big
Shot™ with the Square Collections Framelits™.
Cut additional squares with the same framelit™ from Smoky Slate and
Basic Gray cardstock, split these squares in half and adhere behind the stamped
images.
Mount the hand images onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Ink the sentiment from the retired set, Short & Sweet
using Smoky Slate Classic Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, trim and create the
banner points with the Hexagon Punch, mount onto Basic Gray cardstock and
create the banner with the Hexagon Punch.
Adhere the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’
Dimensionals®.
Add Rhinestones to the center of the hearts on each hand image
to finish off the card.

retired Stampin’ Up!)
Ink: Melon Mambo, Smoky Slate
Paper:
Whisper White, Basic Gray, Smoky Slate, Melon Mambo
