Hello! Hope you are having a great day! I'm popping in with a card that I made for a couple of challenges: Freshly Made Sketches and Color Throwdown. I haven't played along with Color Throwdown in weeks and that made me sad so this week I found the time to play along... YAY! A few months ago I purchased a stamping tool that will allow me to create cards using Concord & 9th's fun turnabout stamp set. Once I had the tool in hand I promptly purchased the Concord & 9th Thankful Leaves Turnabout stamp and die set and used the set for my card. Since there are only three colors in the CTD palette I used a very light gray (Simon Says Stamp Fog) to fill in the spots left after I had stamped the three colors. I love the way the light gray stamping filled in the spots but still stayed in the background. Once that stamping was done I trimmed the piece in two so now I have one more panel to use to make another card! The sentiment is from the C9 Happy Day stamp set and was stamped in the three colors on a thin strip of cardstock that was then backed with a strip of silver glitter cardstock. The strip was adhered to a light gray cardstock base (SSS Fog) and then the stamped panel was adhered using foam dimensionals. Love the clean and simple look of this card.
Hope you have a wonderful day!
Supplies: Cardstock: MFT white, SSS Fog; MFT silver glitter; Stamps and dies: Concord & 9th; Inks: Stampin Up! and Simon Says Stamp

ReplyDeleteI love your card, and wanted you to know that I copied it. I put my version on my blog but gave you credit. I'm not entering contests, just copying cards I like. And I think maybe 2 people read my blog, so I'm not profiting from your work. If you want to be sure I'm legit, the blog is www.falalacards.blogspot.com.
