This card is super clean and super simple, although it did take me awhile to make it, lol! I started by stamping each of the signs in the road sign image using yellow, green and purple inks. The entire image was stamped on kraft cardstock, everything was trimmed out and layered up using various heights of foam dimensionals. I cut a strip of white cardstock and then did some second generation stamping using the same yellow, green and purple inks and the earth image from the set. I adhered the strip and the sign to a kraft card base and then added the black baker's twine. I wasn't sure I was going to like the second generation stamping, but I think it turned out pretty well.
Thanks for stopping by...
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI white & kraft; Stamps: Clearly Whimsy Stamps; Inks: Memento and Stampin Up!; black baker's twine
