Another late night! I finished my Fabric video earlier, ate dinner, and then had to get this card finished for Craft Roulette so I could post it in time. Whew!
Find Craft Roulette on YouTube @CraftRoulette and play along when you can! I have enjoyed being a Patron. We get an extra few days to submit our cards for the week, plus a few extra videos each week, and sometimes some digital artwork from Mary Gunn herself. It's great! So back to this week's card..
Episode #162 parameters, and how I met them:
- Project: Matchbook card
- Colors: Flowering Fields. I took mine right from my designer papers - Purples and beige
- Element: Bird
- Random: Wood grain - it's on the branch
Paper Measurements:
- Highland Heather: 4 1/4" x 11". I actually scored it at 1", folded that up and stapled twice. Then fold the rest of the card in, so it tucks under the flap. Matchbook. Tada!
- Highland Heather: 4" x 4"
- Hand-Penned Designer Series paper: 3 7/8" x 3 7/8"
- Basic White: scrap to stamp/punch/cut out bird, branch and greeting
- Highland Heather: scrap to punch out scalloped oval layer
I also attempted a quick "no line coloring" technique on the bird. Stamped in Crumb Cake, then colored in with Stampin' Blends markers. I then colored over the bird body and wings with Clear Wink of Stella.
Stamp the branch in Early Espresso, then color all over with a Dark Crumb Cake Stampin' Blend marker.
Hand-cut the bird and branch. Greeting is stamped in the NEW Pecan Pie color, which I LOVE.
Finish off with some Opaque Gems, which I just now found out - they are retired. :(
Stamps: Perched in a Tree, Botanical Layers
Ink: Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Pecan Pie
Paper: Highland Heather, Basic White, Penned Petals designer series papers
Other: Double Oval punch, Opaque Gems, Clear Wink of Stella marker
We'll see what tomorrow night brings us, as far as interesting parameters and a new Guest stamper!
Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!
