Today I am sharing the card I made for Your Next Stamp's challenge #79. Your Next Stamp holds a biweekly challenge on the blog. To have a look, or come play with us (CLICK HERE!). This is a sketch and/or color combination challenge. Here is a look at both the sketch and the color combination.
For my project, I started with a piece of Strathmore Bristol smooth white cardstock. I cut it to fit on the front of my card in a wonky fashion. I stamped and white heat embossed the firework like images from the Your Next Stamp Starburst background set. I used Versamark ink and Hero Arts ultra fine white embossing powder. I then ink-blended Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink to highlight the starburst in the background. To add a little more interest, I splattered some Black Soot Distress Oxide paint on the panel.
To create my sentiment, I used the Your Next Stamp Bold Numbers die set to cut 2018 into the panel. I then cut the "hello" word from the Scripty Words die set three times from Lawn Fawn Black Licorice cardstock and layered them together using Ranger multi medium in the matte finish. The card base is cut from Neenah 110 lb. cardstock. I layered some striped patterned paper from Papertrey ink with tape runner adhesive directly to the card base.
The top panel is popped up with black craft foam and 1/2 inch scor tape. This allows the number 2018 to reveal the striped patterned underneath. I made sure to align the centers of the 0 and the 8 with liquid adhesive to ensure they appear as their intended numbers. I also adhered the "hello" sentiment with liquid adhesive and scattered some additional Your Next Stamp Pretty Peacock Gumdrops to add a bit more pink.
There is a complete list of supplies as well as photos of my project and a link to my YouTube video making this project on this blog post. I hope that you will have time to stop by and play with us for the Your Next Stamp Challenge #79. (CLICK HERE!) to visit the YNS blog.
