This is the second card that I have made for this challenge. I kept thinking about how I wanted my card to turn out and actually made a template to make sure it would work. I also used a digi stamp on my card, to further challenge me to "Make It Move."
You have plenty of time to enter this challenge, it goes for a month. I love working with these designs. They are so detailed that they always turn out great. Go here for more details on the challenge.
Here is my card.
I printed my images from the Rose and Chamomile digital stamp set before I am going to color it. I also heat set it for good measure. That seemed to do the trick as there was no bleeding of the ink. Cheryl Scrivens have me some great hints on the digital images when I was having trouble. It's all about the ink.
Back to the card. I used three of the images that I printed, One single rose and two of the bouquets. I idea was to have a cluster of beautiful roses and then the sentiment would show when you pulled on the tab at the top. I used a die from MFT to accomplish the mechanism.
Kraft base, layer of Charcoal Brown and then a layer of Bazzill embossed card stock that I sponged with Distressed ink in Antique Linen. I also added three of the frames in white, from Frantic Frames, Fancy Frames #1. Then I added the rose digital images colored with copic markers and placed so that they would look like a huge bouquet.
Here is the look at the inside
When you pull out the tab at the top, the sentiment shows. It is also a digital from the same Roses and Chamomile set. You can resize it to make it anyway that you want. I have someone in mind who has a November Birthday. Now I am way ahead of my birthday cards for November.
Thanks for brightening my day with your comments.
