Today I have
a card that I created for the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge blog,
This week at
the SIP Challenge blog we have a very fancy Colour Challenge !
Our chosen colours
to use this week are Basic Black, Real Red and Gold.
As always I
started off by using my We R Memory Keepers Trim & Score Board to trim down
my favourite cardstock, making an A2 top folding card out of Trophee Board
White Linen 240 GSM Paper.
Next using
the My Favorite Things Blueprints 15, I took the large side angled die and die
cut one panel in Basic Black cardstock and the other using some striped retired
Season Of Style Designer Series Paper.
Using the
larger heart from the Small Hearts Doily die set from Simon Says Stamp I then
die cut my heart out of Basic Black cardstock, this die is a bit fiddley as you
have to push out all the little bits left in the die cut but it is definitely
worth the extra work as it very pretty when finished.
Using a
retired Stampin’ Up! stamp set called A Happy Thing I took the “Love Life”
stamp and masked off the life so I was just left with love, I stamped this with
Versamark ink to the middle of my die cut heart and heat embossed it with
Ranger Super Fine Gold Embossing Powder.
Because I felt
this card needed just that little something more I also used the banner die
from the My Favorite Things Blueprints 23 to add a pop of Real Red behind the
Basic Black heart doily.
I adhered
the two large side angled die cuts down to my card front using Tombow Mono Multipurpose Liquid Glue, I then added the banner to the
heart doily using more Tombow Mono Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then popped the
whole thing up with a few Best Creation Large 3D Foam Tape Dots so my card
wasn’t completely flat.
To add the
gold to the card and to tie in with the gold sentiment I also added
some Gold Glimmer Paper flowers made with the flower punch from the Itty Bitty
Accents Punch Pack. I think this
gave the card a really nice elegant / romantic sort of feel - or, that’s how I see
it anyway. =)
That’s my
card all finished, I hope you like what I came up with.
Thanks for
stopping by and happy crafting,
