Hi Friends!
I am
sharing two different cards using the same retired background stamp, Paisley (Stampin’ Up!) and a verse sentiment from the retired Verve stamp set, Faith
Medley.
It is a
personal goal of mine to create cards using my older stamp sets as well as a
card for each one of the over 1,000 sketches at Splitcoastampers.
I was able
to use two different sketches for the design plus the Paisley background stamp
is at least 20 years old, meeting both of my personal goals :-) !
Both of the background
panels were created the same way:
Press
Distress Oxide inks onto a silicone mat, spritz with a bit of water and “smoosh”
a white cardstock panel into the ink.
Repeat
the process to cover the cardstock, drying each layer with a heat tool.
Once the
panels are dry, ink the Paisely background with Versamark Black Onyx ink, stamp
onto the inked panel, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat
tool.
Trim and
layer the inked background panels (per the sketch), mount onto a white card base
and add the framed heat embossed sentiment.
Add a few
sequins to finish off the card.
The first card uses the Splitcoaststampers SC231 Sketch Challenge for the layout and the second card uses the SC65 sketch for the layout.
If you
have not had a chance to check out the galleries at the challenge sites yet, I
would encourage you to do so- gorgeous inspiration from each of the Design
Teams as well as the galleries!
