Blue Grad Card

Love the new Dreamweaver stencil I picked up the other day. I don't have much experience with stencils yet, but I did learn that there is an enormous difference when you use the right paper with distress inks. The Ranger Speciality stamping paper (matte coated cardstock) allows the colors to glide over the paper so beautifully. Definitely going to have to stock up on that paper!

Supplies Used:

Paper: Ranger Specialty Stamping Paper, teresa collins Everyday Moments

Dies: Spellbinders Sentiments One, A2 Curved Borders One, Labels One & Circles, Sizzix Stars

Stamp: Northwoods

Ink: Distress Faded Jeans & Salty Ocean

Other: Sapphire ep, Dreamweaver Stencil

Today's card follows sketch challenge CAS(E) this Sketch #79. I just picked up these two little stamps for a $.50 at Michael's the other day. I used some Brush Strokes Stamps from Hero Arts to add some color. Added a little die-cut gold, some twine and done! When taking a photo, I remembered to try my new phone camera, but there is one drawback: how do you take a shot when you are talking on the phone?? Love that the phone has so many uses, but phone calls seem to disrupt all the other activity...crazy!
