Inkspirational has a CASE challenge this fortnight, and the task is to CASE anything made by DT member Yvonne. I love Yvonne's work. I'm especially fond of her vibrant yellow colored cards, and I love how she makes the most wonderful backgrounds using stencils.I got this Tim Holtz stencil on Saturday, along with some embossing paste, and this is my very first attempt of using either one. I decided to case this card. Along with the color scheme and the sunrays, I picked up her idea of adding stars and a non colored image.
My image is made with a stamp from Kort&Godt, the image is heat embossed with clear EP.
The sentiment is one of my favorites, it's from a Dylusions set.
I used Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey Distress Inks, and some star bling from my stash. For an added touch of sparkle I sprinkled a bit of Frantage to the background and machine stitched with a gold metallic thread around the edges.
So this card has a little bit of Yvonne's style and a little bit of mine...
This card is for these challenges:
1) Inkspirational - #49 CASE anything by DT member Yvonne
2) Totally Gorjuss - #221 - Sunny Colors
3) A Little Bit Crafty - Man Up
4) The Squirrel & the Fox - #62 Use embellishments
5) Make it Monday - Anything Goes
