Stamp Ink Paper: Card Maker’s Choice #80

Today’s card is for the first Stamp Ink Paper Challenge of 2017!  When I first got the card making bug I sent birthday cards to family and friends.  Then as my life got busy between deployments and military retirement, my side business in graphic design took off like wildfire.  A week or so ago, I posted on my personal FB page that #ImBringingBirthdaysBack in 2017 (hence the watermark).  I received many responses from friends (family is already included) and I got started last month.  This card went to a childhood friend, Jose.  He lived two houses down from me and our families are friends to this day.

Join us this week and show us what your style of cardmaking.

The Details:

  • Stamped Circle.  To get a perfectly round stamped image in the center punch a scrap sheet of paper no bigger than the card base (4.25″ x 5.5″). Place it in the center where you want the image placed and use a large enough stamp that will cover the opening. It doesn’t have to be round you can choose any shape you desire.
  • Boots.  Were colored with Copic markers and two sets of Stampin’ Dimensionals were used to give an added dimension to the boot and background.
  • Just for kicks. Silver metallic thread was added to the back of the boots to just for fun.

I Now Wear Two Hats

I have been blessed with a gift I didn’t know I had until after my military retirement.  I’m a naturally gifted Graphic Art Designer.  I don’t create graphic designs, I purchase them from other designers and I incorporate them into my custom pieces.  I’m so blessed with the addition to my endeavor that my cup overfloweth.   Hence the reason to this oh so cute banner I made for a customer.  You can see more of my custom pieces here.

Beside being super busy with creating personalized master-pieces, I’ve discovered that our Whisper White Cardstock is oh so perfect for printing rich colorful prints.  You can’t even tell that the banner is an actual print straight out of my color laser printer can ya?
