Hello friends!
It is my honor today to share my guest design projects with you.
Paru over Paru's Card-making Challenge invited me to be the June Guest designer!
The theme is a fun and timely one! I took up the challenge and created a card for hubby Dr. John and a tag for my son David who is doing an engineering internship in San Francisco.
For all details, please visit Paru's Card-making Challenge
About the card:
I created the background with the stencil (Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Gear) with Distress Crayons. By applying and mixing
the colors with my finger tips, the background was easy to create. I then
lightly applied some Wendi Vecchi Embossing Paste (white) over and let dry. After that, I stamped the
sentiment from Brushed Happy Sentiment Set (from The Ton Stamp). For final touches, I attached the
globe from TH Souvenir Adornments with strings.
About the tag:
I stamped the Hero Arts Goldfish in Distress Inks (Carved Pumpkin and Festive Berries) with the help of MISTI. After stamping the image, I clear-embossed the fish. I did the same with the sea weed/grass in Mowed Lawn Distress Ink and Scuba (Simon Says Stamp). After that, I sprayed blue mist ( Lindy's Gang Steel Shimmer Glitz Spritz and Heidi Swapp Project Life Spritz). Once the paint dried, I embossed the sentiment with Hero Arts Platinum EP. I added the droplets with White Opel Liquid Pearls. I added the adornment/twines for the tag.
I think this "just keep swimming" tag is perfect for someone like my son David. He is enjoying the internship in an electric motor bike company this summer. Every weekend, he keeps himself busy in sightseeing, running and biking in SF. These are a few snap shots.
I am sure that I left my heart in San Francisco.
I hope that you check out Paru's Cardmaking Challenge. Not only this is a great chance to get your Father's Day card projects done, it is also a good chance to win two prizes from the sponsor for this challenge!
Awesome, right?
