Hello lovelies!
This week I'm sharing two cards I made using the Hero Arts "Fresh Citrus" Bold Prints background stamp! I love these stamps, they make it easy to produce multiple cards!
I cut a panel from white card stock using the largest of Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts. I used my Misti stamping tool to stamp the background on to my panel with Gina K's Amalgam Jet Black ink, making sure to remove the foam from my Misti beforehand. I stamped a small portion on a small piece of scrap card stock I had left over from a previous project also, so I could colour and fussy cut one of the lemon's from it to use as an accent later on. I coloured all of the images using alcohol markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.
I used Honey Bee Stamps' "Double Stitched Circles" to cut a window from my background and set the circle aside for a second card. I adhered blue and white twine to the back of my window panel so it would show only through the circle.
I cut a panel the same size as my background and also a slightly smaller one using the second largest of Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts. I lined up where I wanted my sentiment to go within my circle and using my Misti I stamped it using Gina K's Amalgam Jet Black ink. I paired stamps from Mama Elephant's "Sweetest Greetings" and Heffy Doodle's "Yappy Happy Mail" stamp sets. I popped my window panel up on the sentiment panel using 3M Scotch Double Sided Foam Tape, popped up my extra lemon within my circle also and adhered my panel to my card base using Scor-Tape.
For my second card I popped my patterned circle up on my white panel I cut previously using 3M Scotch Double Sided Foam Tape. I wrapped twine around the bottom of my panel this time, adhering it on the back once again. I cut a panel from black card stock using the largest of Mama Elephant's "Basic Rectangles" Creative Cuts to frame my panel. I stamped my sentiment from Waffle Flower's "Bear Hugs" stamp set on to a scrap piece of white card stock, trimmed it in to a banner and popped it up across my circle. I adhered both panels together and to my card base using Scor-Tape.
Thanks for reading lovelies! I'll see you next week with another card.
