Here is another card for
the Splitcoaststampers’ Virtual Stamp Night- Summer Vacation JUN14VSNI “TanLines” along with the Hand Stamped Sentiments HSSC187 Color Challenge.
Again, if you have not
visited either of the sites above, I hope you will take the time to do so-
great ideas and inspiration from all!
To create this card:
Since the “Tan Lines”
Challenge is to use masking, I used two different types of masks. The initial mask is a square cut from Whisper
White cardstock using the Square Collections Framelits™ (the opening was
remaining after the image was cut out) and I used sticky notes to mask the
flowers as I stamped the images.
Use a Sponge Dauber with Blushing
Bride Classic Ink to apply the background ink onto the opening from the square cutout.
Using Stippled Blossoms
along with Strawberry Slush Classic Ink, repeatedly stamp a few of the
flowers. Mask the flowers using a sticky
note and stamp again (huffing onto the stamp to re-moisten the ink before
stamping). With the flower masks still
in place, stamp the leaves using Pistachio Pudding Classic Ink. Remove the masks and stamp a few of the small
flowers using Blushing Bride Classic Ink.
Trim around the panel
allowing some of the white to show and mount onto a piece of Pistachio Pudding
cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Strawberry Slush cardstock.
Adhere a
piece of Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper (DSP) onto a piece of Pistachio
Pudding cardstock, trim and mount onto the Strawberry Slush card base.
Stamp the
sentiment from Wetlands using Memento™ Tuxedo Black ink onto a piece of Whisper
White cardstock and punch out using the XL Oval Punch. Mount onto a piece of
Strawberry Slush cardstock also punched with the XL Oval Punch.
Adhere
the sentiment to the front of the card and mount the main focal panel using
Stampin’ Dimensionals®. Add the
Strawberry Slush cardstock bow along with the Antique Brad.
Stamp the
butterflies using Memento™ Tuxedo Black ink onto Blushing Bride cardstock and
punch out using the Elegant Butterfly Punch.
Use the Strawberry Slush Stampin’ Write marker to color part of the
butterfly and add a few highlights with the Chalk Marker.
Add to
the card front along with a few Pearls to finish off the card.
