I made this card for CC209 - Basic Black, Rose Red, and Always Artichoke...I also added a bit of gold for an accent.
I just love this new stamp sheet which will be available from Innovative Stamp Creations this Friday, March 13th!! When I first saw this bird image, I knew I wanted to make a card with it using the faux Cloisonne technique. I started with a picture from a magazine, and embossed the bird with antique gold EP over the pretty pink magazine paper, and cut it out.
For the sentiment I stamped it twice on rose red...I then cut the sentiment in two, layered the larger word on some gold paper, and then embellished the smaller words with a piece of hardware. The hardware was actually silver, but I wanted it to be gold to match the rest of the card, so I took some of Tim Holtz gold ink additive on a sponge and sponge it over the silver.
I just want to all to know that this is just the first of many sneak peeks this week, so come back to see even more over the next few days!
