Where to Next?? for Just for Fun Rubber Stamps


Good Morning.  It's Lisa with my newest project for Just for Fun.  I am so excited to be able to share my creation with you.  This following sketch is the inspiration for my card.

 
I started with the white card base.  I cut a mat of bright blue card stock and add to the center of the card front.  I added yellow mat to the top left edge of the card front.  I added a piece of blue ribbon to the card front.  I cut piece of white card stock and stamped Direction Destination Sign (F3654) using Rich Cocoa ink.  I colored the image with Copic markers. I then stamped the various cities on the signs from the Unmounted Destinations Cities (UMS7022) using various colors of the Tim Holtz Distress inks.  I cut a mat for the image out of black card stock.  I then cut a second mat of bright blue card stock.  I added the blue mat to the card front at a random angle.  I attached the stamped and colored image to the black mat and then added to the card front, again at a random angle.

Wind Swept Palm

 
Hello Everyone!  Welcome to my newest project for Just for Fun Rubber Stamps.  I am excited to be able to share with you today. 

For my card I decided I wanted to create a card that would be great for a summer birthday or other special occasion. I started with the white card base and I added ribbon to the card base.  I cut a piece of the blue and green ribbon and added to the edge of the card front running lengthwise.  I also added a piece of blue ribbon going the other direction of the card weaving it in between the other pieces. I cut a piece of the white card stock and then I stamped the Wind Swept Palm (F3653) using Memento ink pad in Tuxedo Black.  I colored the image with Copic and Memento markers.  I cut a mat of black card stock and added the stamped image to the mat.  I also cut a mat of lime green card stock and attach to the card front off centered.  I added the stamped image to the lime green mat again off center.  I also stamped the sentiment Everyday and Everyplace (B3671) on the bottom right edge of card front.
 
Finished Card Size: 7-7/8”x 5-3/8”
