Hello and welcome again to my blog; my second post today is for Kylie's International Blog Highlights. There are projects from all over the world that have been submitted. You can vote for my card here. If I am one of the top 10 winners I get to take part in her International blog hop again this month. For my card I used the It Starts with Art Stamp set to create this super fun clean and simple Encouragement card. Here's a look at my card.
Tips & Tricks:
I started out by picking one of the images I thought was under used. I went with the Paper Clip/Binder clip image and stamped it using my Stamparatus with the hinge step technique. I stamped five of them on a strip of whisper white cardstock (1 1/2 x 5 1/4) so that I could use my Many Marvelous Markers to color them in. Also lately a little under used. I colored each one in matching colors in the designer series paper. I used Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Coastal Cabana, and Pacific Point plus a little Basic Gray for the metal. Since I was stamping them on such a small piece of paper and the images where so small I really didn't need to blend them. I added that to a piece of Coastal Cabana Cardstock (1 3/4 x 5 1/4).
My card base was a piece of Pacific Point cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4. To the front of the card base I added a piece of the Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper cut at 4 x 5 1/4 and stamped my sentiment at the bottom right corner. Above that I added my colored paper clips mounted on the coastal cabana cardstock with Stampin' Dimensionals. You can see how using the Stamparatus to stamp them I have perfect placement and spacing.
To finish off my card I added a few rhinestones to add just the right amount of sparkle. That's my card for today. If you are in the United States please consider shopping with me online.
