Here we are on the 2nd day of January already!!! My how time flies!!! LOL.......Seems I find myself more creative at night more so than during the day......I know I'm weird!!! :) Anyway...I did get another swap completed for the CCC group I belong to.....The theme of this swap is "Just A Note" Swap....I wanted this card to be colorful but warm.....See what I came up with....
The image is a rubber stamp......I loved it when I purchased it but had never used it before now...just could not find the perfect reason to use it....I must say I'm quite happy with the outcome of it....I stamped it with Whispers Black Ink onto white cardstock......I then colored it with water color pencils and blended with a water brush.......then I stippled with a couple colors of Tim Holtz's Distress Ink Pads....spritzed with some Pearlex spritzer and dried with my embossing gun....Once dried I then coated with my versamark pad and coated with clear embossing powder and embossed with my heat gun.......I like the coated look of the image...
Then I punched 3 holes on the side and tied ribbon in the holes......I used raised foam to bring up off the base of the card.....The words "Just A Note" I used my SCAL program to create and cut then cut a shadow layer as well with my cricut....I coated the shadow layer with glue and covered with Antique Silver Martha Stewart glitter.......the top layer of the words I coated with Versamark Ink and then covered with clear embossing powder and heat embossed.......the stripped background of the card and the envie I printed off......this completed the card.....I am also quite happy with this card!!! What do ya think???
I as always would like the Thank You for coming to visit again...please always come back...it truly makes my day!!! Until then......
