Happy cardmaking Day

Happy Cardmaking day to everyone. I do hope that you have plans to celebrate. I am going to be celebrating at Debbie's house - a group of about 10 of us. I will be doing two demos - One on honeycomb paper pop out cards and one using Adirondack paint dabbers. Hopefully will get pictures and will post these two techniques on my blog next week.

Today's card uses a Crafty Individuals stamp.

Materials: Black cardstock, Pink pattern scrapbook paper, Black and white Pink Petticoat download paper, Cream cardstock, selection of color box ink pads, Gold pen, Flowers, Rhinestones, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Black Brilliance ink pad,Distress stickles

Method: Fold black cardstock to create 16 x 16 square card. Run strip of black cardstock through Big Shot using Cuttlebug embossing folder.Go around edges of Pink pattern scrapbook paper with pink color box ink pad and then attach to cardfront and attach black/white pattern paper and then cuttlebug strip. Stamp image onto cream cardstock using black brilliance ink pad and heat set. Then use a selection of color box ink pads to color in using DTP technique as described in my blog entry on 26 Sep. Go around edges of image with gold pen and attach to cardfront. Rub distress stickles over Prima flowers using your finger as an applicator and attach flowers and rhinestones.
