Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.
Here is my card for challenge inspiration. I used Beer Blueprint and Mini Stencil Set 34.
I started by stamping Beer on 110 Neenah White paper using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Then I masked the image and ink blended the white background using Distress Inks Antique Linen, Tea Dye, and Gathered Twigs. I stamped You Matter to make a text background using Gathered Twigs, and then added ink splatters on it (reinkers of Fired Brick & Rustic Hinge ) .
The teal colored background paper was made using Kaisercraft Summer Splash, Tim Holtz Mini Stencil Set 34, and Distress Oxide Inks Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon, and Faded Jeans. I gave some distressing effect on paper edges using Tim Holtz Paper Distresser.
I added Natural Twine when I assembled layers as shown in the pic. After I finished layering the papers on 110 Neenah White Card Base, I added sentiments and leaves from Yes You Can set. I used Super Fine White embossing powder to heat emboss sentiments and I gave dimension to them by matting & foam tapes. As a final touch, I added a few gemstones and Clear Wink of Stella to the image.

Marge! Your coloring is out of this world - in the perfect ale color! There is an old saying that mentions finding ones courage in the bottom of a bottle - this sentiment suggests that to me.. perhaps bravery in the bottom of a mug works, too! lol xx

Hi Marge, What a Wonderful card, I ADORE it. I love the teal background with the beer color, and your coloring you know always inspires me!! This card is so AWESOME, I actually have this stamp I purchased it so I could make a card for my husband with it. I love Tim Holtz and have drawers packed full of his stamps and his products so I can't wait to join my first SSS challenge. Thanks Marge for making it happen :)
ReplyDeleteYou brought pretty and cool to this card, I love the layering and the vintage effect you created around the beer mug! I wish I could do something like this, because geez, you distressed this challenge like a pro! :)

ReplyDeleteI am in awe all of the awesome details in this card. I love every inch of this card. The background is perfect with the distress inks, the background Stamp used is perfect. I love the beer mug and the way you colored it. The sentiment is perfect! But then as I look on, I see the gorgeous teal frame with a cool stencil design. The twine is perfect because it resembles the design in the stencil. You aced this challenge, Marge. You really did!!
