Hi Friends!
It's time for The
Card Concept #110 {Shamrock Blessings} Challenge!
I love the pieced wooden
shamrock as well as the light wood door in the background and it inspired me to
pull out a quilt stamp to create a Clean and Layered/Mixed Media card.
I am also linking this
card to the Simon Says Work It Wednesday February “Green and Gold” Challenge,
the Double Trouble #23“Wearin' O' the Green” Challenge (opt. #2- Gold and opt. #3-Heart to Heart Challenge) and the Heart 2 Heart “Anything Goes” Challenge.
If you have not had a
chance to visit us at The
Card Concept or the other challenge sites yet, I hope you will find time to
do so- fabulous inspiration from all!
To
create this card:
1).
De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool. Using Versamark™ Ink, stamp the Star Quilt and
the sentiment from Scripture Collection 3 (both Divinity Designs formerly Our
Daily Bread Designs) onto the prepared
panel, apply gold embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool. Once the embossing has cooled, fussy-cut
around the quilt image and trim the sentiment panel.
2).
Color the quilt with four different green water based markers (I used Lemon
Lime Twist, Granny Apple Green, Call Me Clover and Garden Green- all Stampin’
Up!).
3).
Trim another piece of white cardstock to 4” x 5 ¼” and mount onto a piece of
Lemon Lime Twist cardstock, trim and mount onto a white card base.
4).
Mount the quilt image onto the card front using dimensional foam or other
dimensional product (I used some scrap chipboard).
5).
Mount the sentiment to the front of the card, overlapping a bit of the quilt
image (I used scrap chipboard for the dimension on the ends only).
6). Add a few drops of Nuvo™ Light Gold Crystal Drops around the
quilt and sentiment to finish off the card.

Wow such detail and what a gorgeous card. Thank you for playing along with us at H2H this week.
Beautiful quilt stamp and lovely gold embossing and then coloring with the variation of green and love how you did had your quilt come beneath the beautiful verse. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and Heart2Heart. Check out ColorMyHeart Color Dare and see if this fits their requirement for another challenge...closes today.
I love the quilted stamp image! What a great idea to emboss with the gold and then color with the greens. Thank you for joining us at Heart 2 Heart!
