Magical Things Happen...
This card, or a variation of it has been floating around in my head for weeks now. I really wanted to make a rainbow card with scraps but haven't been able to find a way to to tie all the colours together. I really like how embossing the cracked background stamp on them really make it more cohesive. Both the background image and the sentiment are from Mark's Finest Papers. The sentiment is from their Winter Crocus set. The sentiment is embossed in white and then I inked the edges of the black cardstock with my white versamark ink. The sentiment is then popped up on some scrap EZ Mount from my stamps.
Challenges this Card Meets:
CASE-ology - The theme is WORD. I thought of the sentiment as being the main focus.
Craft Room Challenge - So sentimental
Crafty Creations - No patterned paper. (I made my own.)
Loves Rubber Stamps - Colours of Spring (We see lots of rainbows here in BC in the spring!)
Speedy Fox and Friends - Embossing with white embossing powder.
Simon Says Stamp and Show - Use a Background Stamp
Crafty Bloggers' Network - Anything Goes
Tuesday Throwdown - Focus on the Sentiment
Use it Tuesday - Use an adhesive. My old EZmount scraps leave adhesive everywhere. It's so sticky on the one side and I keep forgetting to leave it on the paper it comes on.
Victorine Stamps - Spring Colours - Rainbows definitely scream spring to me.
GE-WE Hobby Challenge - Spring Card
