Paris Highlights Card
by Sharon JeffsI recently discovered the wonderful world of step cards and have been exploring all the many forms this wonderful technique has to offer. I created my card using this template:
The card I created measured 6 inches by 12 inches and used the measurements supplied on the template.
To decorate, I cut out pieces to cover the front and the two side sections from white card. With a blending tool I inked each piece with Tattered Rose then Tea Dye and finally Walnut Stain over the edges. On the centre main piece I stamped the Great Grandfather's Letter background stamp with Tea Dye.
Using a die-cut machine I cut a shape to affix to the centre of the front and a mat for this. On the top layer of these I inked the surface in the same way as earlier then stamped the label stamp at the bottom left side using Walnut Stain.
To finish, I cut a Vintage Dress Form from a scrap of patterned paper and black card and adhered this to the front section, just over the stamped label then the Paris-scape from black card and adhered it to the base edge of my card.
Products used:
- Frantic stamper Vintage Dress Form die
- Scrap patterned paper
- White card stock
- Memory box Paris-scape die
- Distress ink - walnut stain, tea dye, tattered rose
