Each New Day–C4C #277

C4C277_2015mar14

Happy Saturday, everyone! Since it’s Saturday, it’s time for another Crazy 4 Challenges card! Today’s challenge by Anja is to “bling it up”. Easy peasy, right?

My card started with a Kraft card stock base, then I used MPD Petal Circles Stencil, a small water brush, Kraft dye ink, Breeze Blue dye ink, Orange Zest dye ink, Jellybean Green dye ink, and Black Licorice dye ink on Ranger Watercolor Paper to create my background. My next panel is Sweet Tooth card stock stamped with Black Licorice dye ink and Romantic Script Background, topped with a strip of silver glitter paper. Next up is a tag I created by stamping LJD Spring Tulips on more watercolor paper with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossing with clear detail embossing powder, and water coloring with the same inks listed above. I cut it out with Pierced Traditional Tag STAX Die-namics with hemp cord, popped up on foam mounting tape. The sentiment from the set was stamped on Steel Gray card stock also with Sweet Tooth pigment ink, heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder, and also popped up on foam. I finished off with some enamel dots and clear gems.

On the INSIDE, I stamped another sentiment from LJD Spring Tulips on Sweet Tooth card stock with Black Licorice dye ink.
