Today
I am sharing another Clean and Simple (CAS) black and white card using stamps
and paper available from The
Stamp Simply Ribbon Store!
As
many of you know, I enjoy participating in online challenges and will be
playing along with the Stamping
Sensations January “Fav Stamps” Challenge along with the Simon
Says Wednesday “Anything Goes” Challenge and the Use Your
Stuff #414 “Out with the Old” Challenge.
I
love the stamp sets from Stamp
Simply and they are some of my favorite stamps. I have not had a chance to use the background
die and/or the verse image that I chose for this card, but I have owned them
for a while now.
Plus,
the snippet of collage paper was a piece left over from a few cards that I created
earlier this month (I have also owned this paper for years and it is the first
time I used it). I absolutely love the black
and white design as well as the designs in the rest of the bundle (available at
Stamp Simply).
If
you have not had time to check out the Stamp Simply blog or the other challenge
sites yet, I hope you will do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!
To
create this card:
Die
cut a piece of 4” x 5 ¼” with the Tim Holtz Mixed Media 2 die (rose pattern)
and mount onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” black cardstock.
Cut a piece of the Botanical Collage paper to approx. 2 ¼ ” x 4”, adhere to bottom of the panel.
Here are the four different collage patterns in the bundle |
Adhere a piece of black satin ribbon to the card front, wrapping the ends of the ribbon behind the panel.
Mount
the entire panel onto the front of a white card base.
Use
an embossing powder tool to prepare a piece of
white cardstock for heat embossing.
Stamp
the sentiment from Love Sentiments using Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat
tool.
Once
the embossing has cooled, trim the panel and mount onto a piece of black cardstock
(trimming close to the edge). Adhere to
the card front with dimensional foam (or chipboard).
Add
a few black rhinestones to finish off the card.
Quick
and simple plus easy to mail)!
