Hello again! The Birthday challenge at Simon Says Stamp has inspired me to make a few birthday cards to have on hand. Today I'm sharing a silly guy card with you and hopefully, tomorrow I'll have something frilly for the girls.
This masculine card is made with a background created with Tim Holtz Rosettes Embossing Folder, Metallic Kraft Stock, Distress paint, crayon, and alcohol ink. I have a complete step by step tutorial on this technique
HERE.
I heat embossed three Seth Apter die cuts I had in my stash with silver embossing powder and a sprinkling of Hammered Metal powder for age. Idea-olgy Keepsake and Snippet ephemera, Paper Doll and Snarky Small Talk sticker finish it off. The Paper Doll was colored with Chipped Sapphire Distress Crayon and a water brush, and the ephemera aged with Ground Espresso ink. The blue panel is matted with black card and a panel of old Paperstash--possibly Dapper.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed my grungy card. Hugs! Sara Emily
