For my
September CCC card, I took apart
THIS CARD from several years ago. I loved the focal point, but not the card. Here's the new version that isn't quite so CAS and has more interest.
I stamped PTI Simple Stems and Vogue Vase in Brilliance Starlite Black. The vase was die cut, brushed with a shimmer pen and covered in Nuvo Glaze. It almost looks like ceramic. The CCC is celebrating 15 years--a big accomplishment! Why not join us?
I posted a second card for the current Stay Crafty with
Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero challenge on IG, but I prefer to enter from my blog. Plus, I know some of you don't go on IG. Anyway, if you're an oldie like me, you may have or remember Hero Arts 2011 Merriest Christmas Wishes stamp set. This time I used it to make cards for hubby's cousins, which are always all alike.
I had the stamp in my MISTI so I could stamp repeatedly until the Versafine Clair Blue Belle covered completely. I did the same thing for the sentiment, stamping in Versafine Satin Red. The cardinal was colored with Jane Davenport Thriller Jacket brush pen and Distress marker antique linen. I used a white Posca pen over the snow dots--easy to do and didn't take very long. A true one layer card that won't need extra postage.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
