Good Morning! Second post of the day so please scroll down to see my previous post.
This is the card that I made for LESS IS MORE but didn't get time to post yesterday.
This week is a One Layer Challenge and we have to use stripes. Luckily for me I have the Solid Stripes stamp, just had to think what to do with it. For some reason candy cane came to mind which developed into a candy cane heart.
I started with a Whisper White card base and stamped the dotty stamp from Borderlines firstly in Versamark then in Elegant Eggplant then clear embossed. I punched out a heart using the Full Heart Punch. I then punched another heart in a post it and lined it up inside the card to act as a mask. Then stamped Solid Stripes in Rose Red. I added a Basic Rhinestone Gem for a bit of sparkle.
The sentiment is from Petite Pairs which I inked with Concord Crush Stampin' Write Marker and used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to change it to a straight line.
This is to show you the card open.
I'm enjoying playing around with apertures just now. I think it's a great way to give a little extra to a one layer. Also loving this new stamp set from the mini Borderlines can see it being used a lot!
