Hi Friends!
I hope you are having
a great week so far! I had fun designing
this Mixed Media card for this week’s Splitcoaststampers
SC612 Sketch Challenge using the Ice Cream
Shoppe along with the Bottle Caps
Background from Artistic
Outpost by Our Daily Bread
Designs.
I decided to pull out my sewing machine and incorporated
the TGIF #74 “Sewing & Stitching” Challenge into the design :-)
If you have not had a chance to visit the Artistic Outpost Blog or
the SC612 and the #TGIF74 challenge galleries yet, I encourage you to do so- wonderful inspiration
from all!
Lay the flourish
stencil over a piece of white cardstock and lightly brush the pale pink
distress stain over the stencil, lift and re-position the stencil a bit to the
left and apply a pale gray distress ink with the stencil brush.
While the stencil is still in place, use a clear glitter pen over the entire area.
Distress the edges of
the panel as well as the wedge shaped piece of the pink swirl patterned paper
from the ODBD
Beautiful Boho 6x6 Paper Pad, use a zig-zag stitch to attach the background
pieces to the black cardstock panel and mount onto the white card base.
Ink the Bottle Cap
Background and the ice cream cones from Ice Cream
Shoppe using black archival ink onto white cardstock.
Fussy-cut three
bottle caps along with the ice cream cones and layer onto black cardstock
(fussy cutting the images again).
Die cut three circles
from black cardstock using the ODBD Double
Stitched Circle Dies and mount the circles directly onto the card front.
Layer the fussy-cut
bottle caps with dimensional foam over the circles, add the looped silver
metallic thread and mount the fussy-cut ice cream cones with dimensional foam
as well.
Heat emboss the
sentiment from Ice Cream
Shoppe with white embossing powder, hand trim and mount onto the card front
with dimensional foam.
Use a clear glitter
pen to add shimmer to the ice cream as well as the bottle caps to finish off
the card.
Thanks again for
stopping by- hugs and enjoy the rest of your week, my friends!
