For this Challenge #2, you can link ALL the CARD projects that you create using your favorite stamp sets from Joy Clair Stamps. Show us different ways to use our stamps or just stretch it on your creation. Here’s my card for this challenge #2 with this Fall themed card:
I am using one of my favorite Joy Clair stamps, Tea Time Stamp Set. I stamped the images on watercolor paper with VersaFine Onyx Black ink pad with MISTI, and then I colored them with Leisure Arts Double Ended Markers and water brush.
I dried the watercolored images with craft heater and then I fussy cut them with micro-tip scissors.
On the background, I use the Deco Foil Clear Toner Sheet – Endless Leaves and Gina K Design Fancy Foil – Dazzling Orange.
I simply added the foil on top of the pre-printed clear toner sheet and run it through my laminating machine. After that, I trimmed, and then I added on the kraft card with dries-clear adhesive glue.
I added the watercolored images on top of the card with 3D foam tape.
This is a fun way creating a Clear-and-Simple card, yet still have colors and dimensions.
I hope this card inspires you to make a card today to celebrating this Card Making Day. I cannot wait to see what you will make and share with us at today’s challenge.
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. Have a fabulous day!
