Good afternoon! I'm quickly popping in to share my card for the Market Street Stamps Paint the Town Color Challenge. Here is my card:
And here is the color Combo:
I was amazed to find out that these colors were really fun to use together! I was a little curious if I would have trouble with it, but it came together pretty easily! I used some of my favorite 6x6 paper pads: Basic Grey's Picadilly, and Crate Paper's Paper Heart.
I am especially pleased with how the sentiment came out - LOVE the dimension!
I hand-cut a strip of pattern paper, stamped the sentiment, then tucked one end behind a heart I cut with my Cricut and Create a Critter cartridge. The other side, I stuck foam dots under, then kind of scrunched it over before sticking it down.
I did the same thing with the top peaks of the heart, putting a foam dot under each of them, then sticking the bottom directly on the card. Added a Papertrey Ink button with some button twine tied through the center.
I stamped the compass on pattern paper, and did a little coloring with Copic markers. Matted it with some more pattern paper, and used a Fiskar's embossing edge punch along the bottom edge.
Wrapped a little more button twine around it, then used pop-dots to attach it to the card.
Oh yes - almost forgot! I also inked the edges of everything with Tim Holtz distress ink in Tea Dye.
There it is! I'm off to see if I can get a couple more card entries done!
YAY HEATHER! I love SO much about this card! The papers you chose are just beautiful and I love the way you curved the sentiment to create dimension on your card- very cool! Thanks for playing along with our Paint the Town Color Challenge!
