okay so now onto my card for today. One of my design team sisters, Erika made a wiper card...what is that? That was my reaction also...I had never heard of it, but she also made a video and you can see it here. She did a fantastic job with the details and her video was so EASY to follow. I decided I could do one too...so thanks Erika and here is what I made:
The bling is from the $1 bin at Michaels. When I saw them I knew I wanted to make something for the Fashionable Friends stamp set, but I wasn't sure. They've been in my bling bin for about a month now and this week's challenge was exactly what I needed them for. Yah!!! The background papers are all from my stash...you'd think I'd be through my stash about now, but nope, not even close. Therefore, I have no idea where the paper came from...bad me!!! I used three, yes, three stamps on my card.
I stamped "Girls just wanna have fun" on a flower I punched out of the same paper as the background and pop-dotted it right over the exact pattern a bit off skewer after I inked the edges a bit. I love doing this technique and it gives it dimension without over doing it.
Then I stamped "Shopping is my Therapy" on the wiper so that pops out.
I just noticed I need to adhere my corner down a bit more...hmmm. I also stamped "I (heart) my Visa" six times on the middle panel. |
