SCACD Anything Goes #15


I had a stamp that enabled me to play along with the SCACD Friends with Heart Challenge #5 this week. I used the Memory Box silhouette poinsettia for this image, stamping with versamark and embossing with clear detail ep on white cardstock. I sponged the image with Pear Pizazz while it was in the labels 4 die and then sponged the center with some Blue Bayou ink. It's layered with PP and BB cardstocks, and I did the letterpress technique with the background using a floral Impressabilities and PP ink. For the final touch I added some BB ribbon and green & white bakers twine. I'll be putting the sentiment on the inside when there is an occasion to use the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!! I'll be back soon :)

SCACD Friends with Heart Challenge #3

I made this card for the SCACD Friends with Heart Challenge #3. The challenge this week is to use your "ART." That means A= any stamp from SCACD, R = ribbon, and T= two patterned/designer papers.
Sorry I couldn't get a good photo of this card as we've had cloudy weather for several days now and it will continue through the rest of the week as well. I had to make the picture a tad darker so the colored and embossed background can be seen. I used an impressabilities flower template to make the letterpress background, inking it with Memento Lulu Lavender ink and running it through the Big Kick. It's a subtle look, but it looks much better IRL.
Anyhoo - I used the lovely violets image for this card and paired it with some Memory Box enchanted and BG origins DP. The ribbon is from my stash, and all supplies are listed below.
