Hi Crafters,
Just as well we had an easy but effective card on Friday. There was a good roll up with one lady passing bye and two along for the entertainment. That’s the group, always a joke or two or a comment or three to keep the gloomy days away. Certainly crafting is one way to dispel the “dreary me”, getting out with others and taking life with all it’s knocks with a grin.
The background for the card was created by placing rubber bands, of varying width, around a block or handle. Once all stamps were rubber and mounted on wooden blocks, now we have acrylic, rubber and photopolymer all of which can be mounted on separate ‘blocks’.
. The flower is from Gift of Love and is one of the stamps you can purchase when you host a workshop.
To create the effect, mask off the left and right hand sides of your card front and leave a third of the card exposed in the middle. Stamp randomly in this space.
The stamp set is a two step stamp but we chose to colour ours in with a variety of methods and a happy selection of colours. This was popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and two little butterflys from the Papillon Potpourri Stamp Set
Stamp a greeting, add a bow and card all done.
Bye for now.
Take Care.
