Hi
Again Friends!!
I
am sharing another card that I designed this weekend for a few online challenges using Our Daily Bread
Design (ODBD) stamps.
This Clean and Simple (CAS) card uses one layer card for the base with the focal images mounted on dimensional foam and incorporates LeAnne's Color Challenge #299 at The Paper Players, CAS Colours and Sketches #177 Sketch Challenge,
and the Alphabet Challenge “H” for Hand Coloured Image.
This was a quick and easy card! If you have not already done so, I
hope you have a chance to check out the above challenge sites- fabulous ideas
from all!
To create
this card:
Score and
fold a piece of Extra Thick Whisper White cardstock in half (I used a 4 ¼” x 11”
piece for a finished 4 ¼” x 5 ½” A2 card size).
Ink the
Old Flag Background (ODBD) using Stampin’ Write Markers- Dapper Denim for the
star area, Cherry Cobbler for the red stripes and Smoky Slate for the white
stripes, stamp off onto scrap paper and lay the card front down on top of the
background stamp, pressing with your fingers to transfer the ink.
Ink the
Not Forgotten military figure image with Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and stamp onto Whisper
White cardstock.
Scribble
a bit of Dapper Denim and Cherry Cobbler ink from the Stampin’ Write markers
onto your craft mat (or you can use an acrylic block) and color the image with
the ink and an AquaPainter™.
Color the
military uniform with a Sahara Sand Stampin’ Write Marker and add shadows with
the Tip Top Taupe Stampin’ Write Marker.
Trim the
image and mount onto Dapper Denim cardstock.
Ink the
sentiment using the Cherry Cobbler and Dapper Denim Stampin’ Write Markers and
stamp onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock.
Trim the
sentiment, mount onto Dapper Denim cardstock, “huff” onto the Old Flag
Background to re-moisten the ink in the star area of the stamp and press the
sentiment over the background stamp for a light star background.
Mount the
focal image and sentiment with dimensional foam to finish off the card.

ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, Julie! That flag background is amazing...I've not seen it before, but I think it might have to go on my wish list! Your soldier image along with the Bible verse is a perfect match! A very thought-provoking, thoughtful card! Thanks for playing with my colors this week at the Paper Players!
