I had a desire for something other than a white card base this week, so came up with this card, which is probably going to be for my mother's birthday next month.
The card base and angled panel is After Midnight cardstock from MFT. I clear-embossed the Kaleidoscope background onto the angled panel and then sponged some Chipped Sapphire distress ink around the edges. I also sponged around the card base edges as well.
I matted the panel onto a Silver Sparkle panel and used foam tape to adhere it to the card base.
The sentiment is stacked three high and the stamped sentiment was cut with an angled panel to mimic the main sketch.
Products used:
Stamps: Kaleidoscope BG (SSS), Celebrate (Neat & Tangled)
Ink: Versamark, Obsidian (Altenew), Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink
Cardstock: White, Silver Sparkle, After Midnight (MFT)
Dies: Celebrate (MFT)
Accessories: Clear EP
Cheers
