Hello Everyone,
Today I am sharing a card using the stamp set from Simon Says Stamp Look For The Rainbows. I built the card based on the sentiment. "Skies" lead to the clouds and the color theme Blue. Below you will find the steps to create your own card.
Step 1 - Trim White Cardstock to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score at 4 1/4" and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (A2)
Step 2 - Trim White Cardstock to 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". Stamp Look For The Rainbows image towards the bottom using Gina K Amalgam Ink. Stamp again on Gina K Masking Magic. Fussy cut the masked image. Remove the release sheet and apply over the stamped image on the cardstock.
Step 3 - Create clouds using the Mini Cloud Edges Stencil with an ink applicator and Broken China Distress Oxide to the cardstock from Step 2.
Step 4 - Remove the mask and colour in using Alcohol Markers. I used the new Illustrators from Spectrum Noir. See photo towards the end of the post with the caps shown.
Step 5 - Stamp Look For The Rainbow sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black Ink.
Step 6 - Diecut Double Stitched Rectangles to the background. Adhere to card front using fun foam and Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.
Step 7 - For added interest and sparkle randomly adhere Blue Jewels using a Crystal Katana and Collage Medium.
