Rock and Roll


Welcome
Today's card is a masculine one, pretty simple one to create.
I used the new Sound Waves stencil from A Colorful Life Designs for the background.

So here's what I did to create my card.
  • I got out my Waffle Flower Stencil Mat and positioned the Sound Waves stencil over a piece of white cardstock.
  • I inked over the stencil with some Broken China Distress ink and covered the whole piece of cardstock.
  • I took another scrap of white cardstock and stenciled that next.  
  • I cut the scrap down so it would match up with the background stenciling, then placed that into my Misti to stamp the image of the guitar player.  I stamped using Archival Black so the stripes wouldn't show on the image.
  • I clear heat embossed the image to help make it pop.
  • I took the larger panel and placed that into my Misti to stamp the sentiment and clear heat embossed that as well.
  • I glued the larger stenciled panel onto a piece of matching blue cardstock and then onto an A2 sized card base.
  • I pop dotted the guitar player over to the side, matching the lines up with the background.
  • Finally, I added 3 black gems just under the sentiment.


Here is the stencil I used:
