Birthday Gears
Today’s card is one I created using the Gears & Textures Bundle. I used the circle/dotted die from the Gears & Textures stamp set and Gray Granite ink to stamp twice onto Basic White card. I used the dotted image to stamp onto the Basic White card twice full strength and twice second generation. I also added the solid splash image from the Gears & Textures stamp set twice onto the card using Night of Navy ink. I attached the stamped panel to Night of Navy card. I stamped “happy birthday” from the With You in Mind stamp set onto Basic White card using Night of Navy ink.
The greeting is cut out using one of the Nested Essential Dies. I dipped the edges of the die into the Night of Navy ink pad and attached the greeting to the stamped Basic White card using dimensionals. I used one of the dies from the Gears & Textures Dies to cut Night of Navy card and attached it to the card front using dimensionals where necessary. I used the Dark Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend to tap some light splatter onto the whole panel before attaching it to scored and folded Thick Basic White card. I used the circle image from the Gears & Textures Dies to stamp twice onto Basic White card using Gray Granite ink.
I made sure to stamp onto scrap paper first each time. I stamped the greeting from the Simply Said stamp set over the top of the stamped circles using Night of Navy ink. I used the Dark Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend to tap some light splatter across the greeting. I dipped the edges of the stamped Basic White panel into the Night of Navy ink pad before attaching the panel inside the card base. I had a lot of fun playing with this card and stepping outside my comfort zone to add the splatter to this card. I’d love to know what you think.
Bye for now,
Kris
