It’s
time for the weekly sketch at Splitcoaststampers! Cathy was our #SC679 sketch designer again this week and I love this versatile sketch she created for us!
I decided to create another Clean and Simple Mixed Media card using
the new release from Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps- Scene Silhouettes:Wetlands and Scene Silhouettes: Wetland Grass along with a previously released
stamp set, Long Stem Silhouettes.
I
am also linking this card to the Simon Says Monday “Winter Blues” Challenge and
the Word Art Wednesday #316-#317 “Anything Goes” Challenge.
If
you have not had a chance to visit the Splitcoaststampers’ Sketch gallery or other
challenge sites yet, I hope you will do so- fabulous inspiration from all!
To
create this card:
1).
Die cut a large rectangle from white cardstock using stitched rectangle dies,
score along the vertical lines of the sketch.
Mount the panel onto a piece of black cardstock and adhere to the white
card base.
2).
Ink the duck images from Scene Silhouettes: Wetlands using archival black ink,
apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool. Once the images have cooled, fussy-cut and
set aside.
3).
Die cut another smaller rectangle with stitched rectangle dies. Using a sponge applicator, apply distress
inks (I used tumbled glass, salty ocean and picked raspberry). Once you are satisfied with the ink blending,
spritz a bit of water over the panel and pat dry. Dry thoroughly with a heat tool.
4).
De-static the panel with an embossing powder tool, ink the Scene Silhouettes: Wetland Grass image using archival black ink and stamp twice onto the
panel. Apply clear embossing powder and
heat set with a heat tool.
5).
Re-ink the same Scene Silhouettes: Wetland Grass image with hickory smoke
distress ink and stamp over the embossed grass images.
6).
Mount the panel onto black cardstock, trim close to the edge and adhere to the
card front (along with the fussy-cut duck images from Step #1) using dimensional
foam.
7). Heat emboss
the sentiment from Long Stem Silhouettes with white embossing powder onto black
cardstock. Trim and create the flag
banner by hand, mount onto the card front.
8). Add a few crystal drops to finish off the card.
