Today's card combines Retro Sketches 7 and Colour Q 133.
I stamped the main image on Gray cardstock, in Basic Black ink, then went over it again, a little off-set this time, with White Craft ink. This produces the shadowed effect. I used a Martha Stewart punch on the bottom of the gray cardstock before adding the strip of scalloped dotted ribbon in black. I also rounded the corners of the top of the main panel for a little added interest. For the backround panels, I stamped each one with my Distressed Dots backround inked with White Craft ink. The card was finished off with the sentiment circle and a couple of layered butterflies to tie in the Mustard and Durango colors.
Here's a list of supplies I used......
Stamps: Just Believe, Distressed Dots, Thinking of You (Michaels)
Paper: Black, Gray, Dusty Durango, More Mustard, White
Ink: Black, White Craft, Dusty Durango, More Mustard
Accessories: Embosslits Butterflies, 1 3/4" & 1 1/4" circle punches, Martha Stewart edge punch, Scalloped dotted ribbon, corner rounder punch, basic pearls
Thanks for taking a peek!
