Graffitied Thanks

-

Sometimes you stumble across a project that is just too good NOT to share! This is one of them. It's so unique and the colors just pop. This card was inspired by Stampin' Up! employee (and fellow demo) Shannon West.



Measurements
  • Basic White Note card and envelope
  • Basic White layer (3-1/2" x 5")
  • Basic White scrap (large enough for "thanks")
  • Basic Black scrap (large enough for "thanks")

Directions
  1. Emboss the Basic White layer using the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder.
  2. Add enough isopropyl alcohol (90% of greater for best results) to a Stampin' Spritzer. For this, filling to the bottom of the SU logo will be enough. Add 8-10 drops of Bermuda Bay reinker. Shake to mix.
  3. Holding your embossed white layer at a slight angle and protecting the area around it from splatter, spritz several times so that it begins to drip. Lay flat and let dry. You can speed drying with a heat tool.
  4. Die cut the detailed "thanks" from Basic White and the outline "thanks" from Basic Black cardstock. 
  5. Apply Dark Daffodil Delight Blend to the upper half of the Basic White "thanks", then add Dark Pumpkin Pie Blend to the middle portion, then add Dark Melon Mambo to the lower portion. Where two colors meet, use the lighter of the two Blends to blend the colors together.
  6. Glue the colorful "thanks" to the Basic Black "thanks" outline.
  7. Once brick background is dry, adhere to note card. Add layered "thanks" to card front using mini dimensionals.
  8. Add jewels as desired.

 It's apple season in Maine. I have to be honest, I don't pick a lot of apples. Or drink a lot of apple cider. But I do love apple cider doughnuts, so that counts, right? Tonight, I featured the More than Autumn bundle, which was also featured in my Sept. 24th Tune in Tuesday class. I love this bundle and think you will also! Measurements Crumb Cake card base (5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored and folded in half at 4-1/4") Splendid Autumn DSP (medium green background and deep red background, each 3" x 4-1/2", plus a scrap of the deep red background) Basic White cardstock (5/8" x 3", scraps) Directions Adhere green background layer to card base on an angle, then add the red background layer on top, at a different angle.  Die cut circle from Basic White cardstock. Color the cup with Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends. Stamp cup on the circle using Early Espresso ink. Stamp cup again on the scrap of deep red background paper. Fussy cut the cup sleeve. Adhere t...

And in case you missed my Tune in Tuesday class a few days ago, I've linked to it after the link to the replay of my Friday Night Live where I created this card. Measurements Crumb Cake card base (4-1/4" x 11", scored and folded in half at 5-1/2") Basic White cardstock (4" x 5-1/4", various sizes of scraps for leaves and sentiment) Country Woods DSP (2-3/4" x 4") Linen Thread (four 6" lengths) Directions Adhere DSP layer to Basic White layer. Lay the four lengths of Linen Thread next to each other to cover the area where the DSP meets the Basic White in the middle of the card. Adhere on back side with tape or desired...
