To start off.... instead of making a holiday card, I made a card that can work as a thank you card or a love card because of the sentiment "You Mean The World To Me."
On my card I used the stamp set that Nina Yang created for Avery Elle called Love Notes.
1. First I distress the top of my cardstock with Distress inks; Pickled Raspberry and follow by Wild Honey.
2. Next I then splatter it with plain water then followed by Studio Calico Mr. Huey's Shine.
3. On the left side of the card, I stamped the world image that's included on the stamp set with Brilliance
pigment ink Platinum Planet to give that soft just a little hint of the image just like an added background.
4. I then stamped the leaves cluster image directly on the card except the big flower, I stamped it on the
separate cardstock then fuzzy cut and adhere with foam dots.
5. For the sentiment, I also stamped it on the separate cardstock, cut, and adhere with foam dots.
6. For the final touches, I added some rhinestones.
Here's the look of the full card.
I hope you guys enjoyed my take.
Don't forget to checkout the other DTs for their interpretation of the sketch.
I hope you can play with us these two weeks for the love of stamping.
