Hello Sweet Friends! Sheri here today to let you know that a NEW VIP Challenge has started over in our Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps VIP Group over on Facebook. Each month a new challenge is posted with a chance to win s SNSS stamp set! This month in honor of Father's Day we are challenging you with a Masculine Card Theme. You can find the challenge HERE.

 

I just had to use the NEW Grunge Gears Stencil to create another sample. During the Month of June, you can earn this stencil FREE with any $50 order. I also pulled out the Everyday Greetings 2 stamp set. I'm normally not a very messy crafter so this card really took me out of my comfort zone with ink blending and ink splatters. I do have to admit I love how it turned out and how it pops against the white card base.  I hope you are inspired and will stop by and play along!

 

Steps to Create Card:

• Cut & Score White A2 Top Fold Card Base: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2")
• Cut Black Mat: 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"
  
• Cut White Panel: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"
• Take White Panel, Grunge Gears Stencil, Blue Inks (used Gina K Sea Glass, Tranquil Teal, Blue Denim & In the Navy) to create background.
• Take background and add paint splatters (used White Gouache & Brushed Pewter Distress Paint)
• Cut Black Strip (3 1/2" x 4 3/4") for Birthday sentiment from Everyday Greetings 2 stamp set and stamp and emboss with VersaMark and White Embossing Powder.
• Assemble Card. Black mat is popped up with foam tape (optional).
• For embellishment I added a few black enamel dots.
