Time for a new challenge over at Retro Rubber. Are you ready for some fun? This sketch has several different shapes and layers to work into your card.
A few weeks back we attended a Memorial Service for a family member. It was important to have handmade cards for each of the cousins. This is one of the batch I created. Plus I was able to prep a great sample for this challenge!
This card is a perfect example of using previous experiments to pull together a cohesive card with many layers.
- The base layer is Imagine Creative Medium Interference. This product is no longer available, I loved the result--but it dried out quickly in the jar. There are other companies that are bringing similar product to market. I used a Heidi Swap stencil from about 20 years ago.
- The next layer is vellum stamped with Heartfelt Creations Large Elegant Word Background from about 2014. It is stamped in Kaleidacolor Spectrum.
- Watercolor paper is spritzed with Fireworks! Lilac Posies and let to dray. It was then pressure embossed with Concord & 9th Quilted Card Front die. Paper Studios flag punch creates the shape. Great Impressions sentiment from 2015 is stamped in Memento Luxe Tuxedo Black and heat embossed with iridescent embossing powder.
- A scrap of variegated gold metallic cardstock is trimmed to fit the sketch.
- The final embellishment is a wax seal that was created from items purchased from Amazon.
Please join us and create a card with this sketch!
