Happy Thursday...just one more day till the weekend...woohoo!
Today I have another of the projects I had on offer at my Birthday Blitz card buffet last week. It was inspired by a card I saw on pinterest designed by Bonnie Klass.
I simplified Bonnie's design a little bit, eliminating some of the paper piercing, and adding embossing to the background layer. I used the Pretty Print TIEF (retired) to add texture to the
Naturals Ivory card stock. The globe image, from the
Open Sea stamp set, is stamped in
Early Espresso ink and die-cut using the
Circles Framelits. I added colour with a
sponge dauber and
Pool Party ink and then pierced a border using the
Essentials Paper Piercing template and a
piercing tool. I layered it on a circle, also cut with the
Circles Framelits from
Early Espresso card stock. The suitcase, from the
Traveller stamp set, is stamped in
Early Espresso and coloured with a
sponge dauber and
Crumb Cake ink. It is punched using the
1-3/4" circle punch and layered on a
2" circle in
Early Espresso. The compass, which is from the
Open Sea set, is heat
embossed in gold, punched with the
1-1/4" circle punch and then layered of a
1-3/8" Early Espresso circle.
The sentiment, from the
Petite Pairs stamp set, is heat
embossed in gold and die-cut using the
Banners Framelits.
On the inside I stamped the globe image again using
Early Espresso ink, stamping off twice to ensure a very faded image. The sentiment, from the
World of Dreams set, is stamped full-strength in
Early Espresso ink.
Have a thrilling Thursday!!
Another beauty! Love love love this card!
