Hi Again Stampers!
I wanted to share one more
card that I created this past weekend for the FabFri57 Color Challenge along
with the Poppy Power Power & Spark “The Sky is theLimit” Challenge and the CCC15 Christmas Card Challenge at Splitcoaststampers :-)
The sky on this card
reminds me of one late fall evening’s sunset (sorry, I did not have my camera) but
tried to recreate the scene using a sponged/masked background :-)
I hope you will have the
time to check out the above challenge sites- great designs and inspiration from
all!
To create this card:
Using the 1 ¼” Circle Punch,
punch out a circle from sticky note paper or scrap paper for the moon.
Place the paper with the
opening on a piece of Whisper White cardstock and use a Sponge Dauber to apply
Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral Classic Ink onto the moon area.
Remove the mask and apply the
circle mask over the sponged moon.
Create a mask for the hills
using scrap paper and using Sponge Daubers, apply Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso
Coral and Real Red Classic Ink to the sky area.
Remove the mask for the hill,
reposition to create snow banks and apply Crisp Cantaloupe Classic Ink with the
Sponge Dauber.
Re-mask the hill areas and
stamp the trees using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink.
Use the Big Shot™ with the
Window Frame Framelits™ to cut out the image along with another frame from
Basic Black cardstock. Cut the Basic
Black frame in half and adhere behind the focal image.
Use the Big Shot™ to emboss a
piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Woodgrain Textured Impressions™ Embossing
Folder, trim and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock.
Punch the border using the
Martha Stewart Deep Edge Garden Trellis Punch from Whisper White cardstock,
mount a piece of Basic Black cardstock behind the punched piece and mount onto
the embossed Whisper White panel. Trim
and add a piece of ⅝” Basic Black Satin Ribbon.
Adhere the entire panel onto the
Crisp Cantaloupe card base and add the focal image using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Stamp the sentiment onto
Whisper White cardstock using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink, trim and add the
banner ends using the Hexagon Punch.
Mount onto a piece of Basic
Black cardstock (add the banner ends with the Hexagon Punch) and adhere to the
card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Add the snowflakes using a White Gel Pen to finish off the card.
