Overalls were a huge hit the other day at the Community Centre. We had a lot of fun creating these & everyone of them turned out so very different.
I’ve seen these around the blog world & in magazines, so thought I would have a go myself. Mind you, I started from scratch and didn’t go by a pattern or template.
Supplies – Stamp Set – Hoppy for You (Retired) – but I had to use it, as this card was screaming for it!!!! Ink – Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Lucky Limeade Cardstock – Whisper White, Pacific Point Accessories – Stampin’ Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive, White Gel Pen Non-SU – Buttons
Sorry it is only a short post as I am on the way out the door for my day at the centre & as usual running late.
I created this card for the class we had at the Community Centre yesterday. All our cards turned out different, but using the same technique & colours. It also qualifies for the Latenight Stampers challenge.
Base Card – Pacific Point – 5 1/8″ x 7″ or 13cm x 17.5cm – score at 4 1/4″ or 10.5cm Layer 1 – DSP – 7″ x 1 3/4″ or 13cm x 4 1/2 cm Layer 2 – Whisper White – 5″ x 2 5/8″ or 13cm x 6.5cm Layer 3 – Real Red – 3 1/2″ x 2 3/8″ or 9cm x 6.5cm Layer 4 – Whisper White – 3 3/8″ x 2 1/4″ or 8.5cm x 6cm
I adhered the DSP to the RHS of the base card. I then punched out several stars onto Whisper White Cardstock using the small Star Punch & large Star Punch. Using a sponge & Pear Pizzazz Ink, I sponged the stars lightly. I randomly adhered these to the Whisper White Cardstock before taking my Square Lattice Embossing Floder & running it through the Bigshot. This is called “Inlaid Embossing”. This piece was then adhered to the top of the Base Card.
Taking my Chocolate Chip Ink, I stamped the log onto the small piece of Whisper White Card Stock. I used the same colour to stamp the flies randomly onto the same card. I stamped the frog using Pear Pizzazz Ink & the greeting using Real Red Ink.
The Whisper White Cardstock was the adhered to Real Red Cardstock & adhered to the Base Card. I stamped the fly image onto a couple of small stars & adhered these to the card.
