Speaking of cards - I've got one to share that I made for the Inspiration challenge over at Split Coast on Saturday - before I lost my connection!!
I was inspired by this pretty Paris themed locket from the Urban Rose Etsy Shop
I had some Rubbernecker stamps that were just perfect to recreate this scene:
First I stamped sections of the cracked panel background stamp in Faded Jeans ink - along the top left and the bottom right (isn't it a cool stamp??!) - then I stamped the flourish and finally the Eiffel Tower in black over the background stamping. I inked the edges of the circle with Old Paper.
Thanks so much for stopping by - and I appreciate all your thoughts and prayers coming my way over the past weekend! God is good - all the time!
Stamps: Rubbernecker - Eiffel Tower from Paris 1908 set #527, flourish #530-05, cracked panel background stamp #574, Thanks so Much #565-18
Paper: vintage cream and True Black - PTI, blue textured - DCWV
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Ranger Distress - Faded Jeans and Old Paper
Accessories: foam tape, wrinkled seam tape, circle Nestabilities, rhinestones - Bazzill Basics, small oval punch and Designer label punch - SU
