a fun set in the main catalogue and perfect for a wedding card.
I chose a simple colour scheme, Black and White and added some silver for a bit of pizzazz. I started by heat embossing the car in our beautiful Silver embossing powder and yes, the wheels were silver too. I stamped the wheels again using Black Stazon onto a scrap of Whisper White and punched them out using our 1/2" circle punch. Now the wheels are smaller than 1/2' but I lined the punch up as much as I could so that most of the wheel was punched leaving just a little bit to cut by hand and then using Tombow Multi adhesive attached over the silver wheels. The cans and bride and groom are stamped using Black Stazon ink with a little Silver Smooch on the cans. Ibthen matted the image panel with Basic Black and when I tried laying it on our Brushed Silver cardstock, I really didn't like the look. I thought, well maybe just a Whisper White panel ran through the Big Shot will be good. I used the Lacy Brocade folder (you know I love that folder) and it looks ok but then I thought, hmmm, I have those new Spritzers from the Mini, just maybe a little Platinum Shimmer Paint and alcohol. I was a bit heavy handed in my mix but I really wanted the silver to show and yes, it shows! I will say it is pretty close to the same colour as our embossing powder. Layering with more Basic Black finishes it off. Inside, very simple
Just a sentiment from the stamp set.
Happy Stamping,
