After a very busy
Easter weekend I did get to spend a little time crafting this afternoon. I have a friend who enjoys punny
messages, so this card is perfect for his birthday which is coming up this next week. Finished in time to get it in the mail tomorrow!
This set by Your Next Stamp is Perfect Chemistry is a fun set to use because I am a Chemistry
teacher. The image is stamped on
white card stock with Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black and then was colored with
Chameleon pens. Bubblegum (PK3),
Cool Grey (CG8), Seville Orange (OR4), and Summer Sun (YL02). I also like the
YNS line because there are matching dies for these fun images that make it
quick to die cut a colored character.
The speech bubble is
from Hero Arts Stamp & Cuts “Yes”.
It is die cut from white card stock, and before removing the shape I
used a fine tip Zig black marker to run a thin line around the edge. The YNS sentiment was masked to be able
to stamp the “Watt’s” and “up?” in two lines rather than the way the image is
designed in one line. This allowed
the sentiment to fit in the bubble.
The light yellow card stock and
yellow patterned paper are from my scrap paper stash and were trimmed to 4” x 5 ¼” and 3 ¾”
x 5”. The orange card stock banner was adhered
across the patterned paper along with the Recollection’s Washi tape. The A circle was die cut from the
center of all the layers using Spellbinders Standard Circles Large. This layer was adhered with
dimensional foam adhesive. The
Light Bulb and sentiment were then adhered.
The YNS sentiment is
stamped in the interior of the card with Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black to finish
off the perfect birthday card for my friend.
This card was inspired
by and entered into the following challenges
Mine is November andthe primary color of the card is yellow like the Topaz.
