Boy, I seem to be so busy lately. I have a bunch of things ready to go out for magazine submissions. That takes up a lot of time. I have to run out to the Post Office today and send them on their way. I have squeezed in some Design Team projects too. I have one of those for you today. I used on of the images from the "Shall We Dance Sheet" from The Stampsmith.
Great images! I stamped on glossy white CS with black dye ink. Well, here take a look.
I dry embossed a peice of greenish gray CS (TPC) with a Tim Holtz Texture Fade. I cut out the inside space made by the dry embossing with a craft knife. I roughed up the cut edges with an emory board. I crumbled the piece up and smoothed out. I distressed heavily with Forest Moss and Vintage Photo Distress Inks. I used this piece as a frame for the stamped image. I glued to a dark brown (Bazzill) card. Next step is to make the hearts. I stamped one of the images from the "Love Notes" full Sheet.
I stamped with Vintage Sepia Versa Fine ink on glossy white CS. And, then cut out the hearts. Here is a close up.
I tied a sheer brown ribbon around the card. The hearts are glued on with Fabri-Tac glue. I added Two Prima Flowers and some pearls. This would be a great wedding or anniversary card.
