Happy Saturday!
This morning I have some time to play along with the challenge at Splitcoast inspired by the Pinterest board called Best Business cards. Here are the cards that inspired my card:
I began by stamping the image onto cardstock and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. The embossing works as a resist so it was easy to go back and watercolour the image.
When dry, I mounted the piece with pop dots over scored lines I added for interest.
I stamped this great sentiment from Rubbernecker at the bottom and done.
Adding my card to these challenges:
Chocolate, Coffee and Cards- FRAME IT
Crafting With Friends- ANYTHING GOES
Sister Act- ANYTHING GOES
Addicted to Stamps- MAKE YOUR MARK
Have a great weekend.
Many thanks for coming by and taking a look!
Supplies: stamps- Rubbernecker, Memory Box/ watercolours/ Memento bl ink/ Versamark/ clear eb powder/ ScorPal/ paint brush
Pairing those vibrant colors with that sentiment was genius! This card is a perfect example of how you can use pristine white with neon and make a stunning creation. Awesome job!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I especially like your background scoring - so often its the little details that add so much, Jo x
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous, Karen, and wow, do these colors work together. I love the scoring and the beautiful double mat! Another beauty, my friend! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI adore this. I need to try the embossing before I add color too. Too many things to try and not enough time. Garden is keeping me away from crafting that much now.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, the scored lines really add that extra something. Karen x

I've seen and admired this somewhere already lately! Was it posted in Stamping Enablers or have I pinned it!!? hmmmm. It's the delicate flowers and greens and blues that do it for me!
