Hi Bloggers.
One for the guys today.
For the background, I used Coconut White Card. With the stamp in my hand, I randomly stamped the Newsprint A6 Stamp using Black Soot Distress Ink. I did the same with the Bubbles A6 stamp and then finished off with the Plaid A6 stamp using Fired Brick Distress Ink. (I have ordered some more stock of A6 stamps. They should be here soon.) I made sure the ink was dry and then edged with Black Soot using Cut n Dry Foam.
I stamped the Beer Glass from the Cheers Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Labels 28 and inked through the die with Black Soot. I cut a mat out of red card using the next size up.
I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, again using Jet Black Archival and embossed with the clear powder. I cut it out using Spellbinders Matting Basics B and inked through the die with Black Soot. I cut a mat out of red card using the next size up.
I assembled the card as shown adding some Idea-ology Custom Fasteners and Mini Gears to the corners and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Black Pearl around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.
