Apr 1, 2014 | Thank You |
Yesterday I mentioned that I am fixated on Subway Art. I have one more card to share and then I will change gears – promise! I know it is April Fools Day so I have an out in case I slip!
This card is all about thank you.
This time I used just 2 sets of thank you stamps - Lots of Thanks & Another Thank You Photopolymer Stamp Set. My color combo was the 2013-2015 In Colors. I started with a larger square of Whisper White c.s. and I randomly stamped the various "thank you" images in a variety of In Colors. After finshing stamping, I used the largest Starburst Framelit to cut out my piece. This is a nice technique to use because the images are randomly truncated by the cut.
Because of the shape of my stamped piece, I decided to use a piece of Pistachio Pudding Polka Dot dsp from the 2013-2015 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack as a mat for my Whisper White card base which is 5-1/4" x 5-1/4".
You all know how much I adore candy dots so I am sure that it is no surprise to see a trio of Subtle Candy Dots in the lower right-hand corner. In order to keep my card balanced, I placed an Arrow from the Essentials Wooden Elements in the upper left corner. Notice that its tail is wrapped with some Linen Thread & then tied in a knot.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Remember, if you have any questions about my card, I am only an email away.
Hugs,
Ginger

I am soooo excited! Yesterday, I decided to try my hand at Subway Art on a small scale – card size. It really is addicting! Pick a theme, gather stamps, and choose a color palette.
There are no rules! Stamp off the page, stamp upside down, stamp backwards – you get the idea. The only part of this card where used a stamp-a-ma-jig was on the vertical "HAPPY" . Other than that, I used a clear block that had a Clear-Mount Perfectly Placed Guide on it. If you don't own these guides, please consider getting them because they are extremely helpful in keeping sentiments straight.
Although I chose to use a good number of my stamps, you can create Subway Art with just a few stamps. I also used all of my Bright Classic Ink Pads but, it can be done very effectively with a few.
However, if you would like to have as many stamps and ink as I do, consider joining the Gingerstampers. Today is the last day to join Stampin' Up! for $99 and receive $150 worth of product of your choice! If you are interested, click on the join now button at the top of this post. If you would like to hear more, just email me or give me a call. I would love to help you increase your collection at a discount!
Remember that it doesn't have to be perfect. It is a handmade card and the recipient will be happy that you made an effort just for them. Be sure to check back tomorrow because I will have another Subway Art card for you.
