I found the instructions for this WIPER card here and decided I had the perfect stamps for a fun card...just my style!
Materials:
Paper: My Mind's Eye
WorldWin cardstock
NESTABILITIES: Standard Circle and Blossom 2
Cuttlebug: Pop Culture border set and "Best Friends" set
stamps: A*Muse and Rosie's Roadshow
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink: "Shabby Shutters" and "Black Soot"
This took a little effort to get it to all come together, but the results are worth it. I think I might even go back and add a little "salt" to the rims with my Rock Candy Stickles and some bling, but for now, it is a road ready card if the need should arise. The main part of the card is easy to do, the little pop-up was the challenge for this one. That and getting it all to line up when it was folded again. Boy, there is a reason we do the simple 1/4 cut card!! I suppose once I get the hang of it they will be a breeze....I have another idea for a set of birthday stamps I have from Just Rite too.....
Anyway, check out the YOUTUBE video of the instructions to see how the whole thing gets put together and give it a try....it's not so hard.
The color for the glasses was achieved by rubbing a little ink on it with my sponge, sort of a smudgy look as apposed to coloring them in. The little sunray point behind each glass is achieved by using the
Blossom 2 set, but the Inverted Circle would do the same job...or even some of the new NESTABILITIES sets we just got it....did I mention I got a new NESTIE toy yesterday :)
The "banner" that the "when life gives you limes..." is stamped on is hand cut.
Ok, off to get crafty.
