Time to Celebrate

September 23, 2020 0 Comments

Hello crafty friends, I hope this post finds you well! I crafted today’s project when preparing for Dare 2B Artzy‘s NEW release. It most certainly was (is) a Time to Celebrate! However, I felt my card design was missing something. So, I opted to take a little longer to pull the card together. I decided less is more, and I’m pretty happy with the results. I hope you like it too.

My card project combines multiple dies and stamp sets. I use the Wavy Slimline Framelit Dies, Slimline Gears Dies, Just Chillin’ Stamp Set, and Well Wishes Stamp Set to create my scene. First, on a separate piece of card stock, I ink blend a bright and gradient color. Then I use my paint brush to splash a coordinating blue color to create speckles all over the panel. This will be the card’s background color; and I set it aside to dry. Second, I take a coordinating color piece of cardstock, with a sheen finish and cut out the gears. Next, I stamp and color the cute little penguin friends. They are so adorable, right?!

The card assembly takes a few steps that are in sequential order. First, I adhere the gears panel onto the ink blended background panel. Second, I stamp both the sentiment and the wine glasses. Third, I adhere those panels onto the card base. Next, I finish the assembly by adhering both of the penguins onto the top layer. [And] to finish off the card, I add shimmer and shine. That translates to Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents onto the penguins and wine glasses. What do you think about my Time to Celebrate card?
