Happy World Card Making Day! I hope you find some time to get crafty, and do some creating today - even if it means adding cards to your Pinterest board for later. :)
I'm starting my WCMD stamping with a large square card. This is 5 1/2" square. Why that size, and not a 6" x 6" card? Because it's almost 2am, and I didn't want to dig through my rack of 12x12 paper, so this was the largest square card that I could make out of an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of card stock. 11" divided in half = 5 1/2". I cut my card base 5 1/2" x 11", and scored in half to make the square card.
It's still a big card, and I love that I get to show so much of that cool looking wood pile paper in the background.
The most time consuming part of this card was coloring in the truck with the Stampin' Blends markers. I'm still not the best at shading, but I'm trying. I stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento, colored with the Blends, and then hand-cut.
The ovals are the largest oval from the Stitched Shapes framelits, and then a size bigger from the Layering Ovals framelits. The ovals are layered, and then popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals. I glued the truck right on top with my favorite Tombow liquid glue.
Finish off with a greeting strip, some burlap ribbon, and a few wooden stars. (Stars are retired)
