Shine On! Hope You Can Cling To along with Two Other Challenges :-)

Hi Stampers!

For the entire month of October, Splitcoaststampers has been hosting the Hope You Can Cling To Challenge (HYCCT) to promote Breast Cancer Awareness and create cards to encourage those with cancer and their families.  

This card was created for the Stamp_Momma aka Lori’s HYCCT1401B Challenge- “Shine On” (see the gallery here and the details here) along with the CQC265 ColourQ Challenge and the HSSC197 Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge.  

I hope you will find the time to check out the links above and see all of the wonderful samples at each site- so much inspiration!

To create this card:

Cut various strips of Designer Series Paper (DSP)- I used retired Concord Crush from a Hostess Level I pack along with retired Sycamore Street DSP and Tangerine Tango DSP. 

Mount the strips onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock, add the 5/8” Basic Black Triple Satin Ribbon Bow and mount onto the Tangerine Tango card front.

Stamp the image from the retired 2004 set, Furnished with Love using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink onto Whisper White cardstock.  Color the image using Stampin’ Write Markers- Lucky Limeade, Concord Crush and Crushed Curry.  Add a highlight on the lamp using the White Gel Pen.

Cut the triangular panel for the sketch and mount onto a triangular piece of Basic Black cardstock. 

Add the triangular panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

Stamp the sentiment using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, punch out using the 1” Circle Punch, mount onto another circle of Basic Black cardstock punched with the 1 ¼” Circle Punch and add to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®. 

Add a few Rhinestones to finish off the card.
