Hi everyone! It’s time for a new challenge at the Create a Smile Stamps blog, and this one is all about saying thanks. We had some wonderful entries for the past challenge and can’t wait to see what you create for this one! You can play along to win 25€ to the Create a Smile Stamps store, all the information will be at the end of this post.
For today’s card I decided to go for a clean, rustic look, and to use the wonderful Clear Decorated Wishes and the Clear Decorated Wishes mixed add-on stamp sets.
I heat embossed the images on some Neenah Desert Storm Cardstock that I had cut to a standard US A2 size with one of the dies in the Heffy Doodle Clover Frames dies. I used Versamark ink for the stamping and Ranger White embossing powder. I then colored the leaves with my Prismacolor Pencils.
To spice up this simple design I decided to create a shaker. I cut a window out of my front panel with one of the dies in the Tonic Studios Layering Circles die set, and for the shaker I used some seed beads by Studio Katia and some Pretty Pink Posh sequins
I also added a few sequins to the card front, and mounted everything on a top folding white A2 card base.
And that’s my card for today! Now it’s time for you to get creative with your Create a Smile Stamps products! (And if you don’t own any, check out the freebies on the Create a Smile stamps blog! You can use them for the challenges too!)
