This card was HEAVILY inspired by a card from Papercrafts Magazine's Stamp It! Techniques, Volume 2. You can see this card in a post here.
For the stamped images I used Hero Arts Brush Strokes and Stampin' Up ink colors So Saffron, Gable Green, Pink Passion, and Tempting Turquoise.
Instead of masking (like the original) I made this a separate panel up on pop dots. This gave me cleaner edges than the masking technique. I also changed the sequins to just a few in black for a more dramatic effect. Another thing I did differently was paint on some splashes of Creatology brand glitter using a small paint brush.
I also decided to add faux stitching lines all around the card to give it a different edge. I just used a Stampin' Up marker in black to do this.
My sentiment comes from a stamp set by Hampton Art and KI Memories called Click Click.
So, although the card is certainly a copy of sorts I put my own spin on it. I just couldn't resist making this one as I'm excited to have recently acquired this fun stamp set and LOVED the bright colors used in this design.
Thanks for visiting!
