We Have A Strange and Wonderful Relationship
Hello crafters! I pulled out an old technique for the background of today's card. I used the Shaving Cream technique. There are step by step instructions to this at the top of my blog if you have never done it. I used pink and blue alcohol inks to colour the background with the shaving foam. Next, I stamped Ethel, from the Ralph and Edna At Home stamp/die set and coloured her and then cut her out with the matching die. I added Ethel to the card with mounting foam, as well as the newspaper next to her. I stamped the Strange and Wonderful sentiment in black and cut it out with the matching die and added it to the upper corner of the card. I matted the piece with Cornflower Blue card, then added it to another larger piece of white card. I ran double sided sticky tape around the edges and glittered it with Diamond White Glitter. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 7" in size. All for now, Sue x
