I have been able to take some time to craft again today and have a fun little card to share. This card is for the SUO Challenge to make a one layer card. I do not make these very often and I actually started with another card but couldn't resist the temptation to add another layer. I used the sketch from Case this sketch also. At the Friday Mashup they challenged us to do some sponging. I thought this would be the perfect technique to use on my one layer card.
I used my Swirl stamp I had made from my Undefined Kit earlier. I was looking for a whimsical background stamp and thought this would be perfect. I masked the area off then heat embossed the images with clear embossing powder . I left the masking on and sponged on the rainbow colors. I also scored along the edge of the sponged area to make the image a bit more defined. I finished it off with Embossing the sentiment as well.
Thanks for stopping by!!
This is awesome, Aimee! I love the stamp you made and the bright colors look great. The embossing finished it off perfectly too!!!
