Hi
Friends!
Today
I am sharing a quick card designed with the new Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps A Mother’s Love Clear Stamp Set from the
SNSS April Release and the previously released stamp set, Grunge Elements 2.
A Mother’s Love is such a wonderful set with several silhouette images and sentiments
about motherhood- perfect for Mother’s Day as well as for new Moms or just encouragement
cards!
For
the background, I used a “smooshing” technique that I love to use so I am
linking to the AAA Cards #112 “A Favourite Technique” Challenge and am also participating
with the CAS on Friday #130 “Mother’s Day” Challenge.
If
you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge sites or the SNSS Blog/FB Page yet, I encourage you to do so- fabulous
inspiration from all!
To
create this card:
1).
Pat your ink pad onto a silicone crafting mat (I used Distress Ink), lightly
spritz with water, press white cardstock into the ink, lift the panel and
re-position in the ink. Continue to press
and lift until you are satisfied with the background. Dry with a heat tool.
2).
De-static the panel with an embossing powder tool, ink the image and sentiment
from A Mother’s Love with archival black ink, stamp onto the panel, apply clear
embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.
3).
Ink the hearts from Grunge Elements 2 with distress ink and stamp onto the
panel. Wipe off any excess ink from the images with a paper towel.
4).
Die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle die, mount onto black cardstock and
adhere to a white card base.
5).
Finish off the card with a few sequins.
