This card was made as a sample for the Cyberstampers September Mystery Stamp sponsored by Ma Vinci's Reliquary. The base of the card is black cardstock. The background is Golden light molding paste on watercolor paper (leave some paper showing) sprayed with Luminarte Radiant Rain Mists. After it was dry I added gold spray webbing, let it dry, edged the piece with Gold Krylon paint pen, and layered it onto the base. "DREAM" (from Ma Vinci's Reliquary) was inked with pigment ink. I then inked another small stamp with another color of pigment ink and tapped it a few times on the inked Dream stamp, cleaned the small stamp, reinked it and repeated the tapping.... stamped 'Dream' onto glossy white paper and embossed with clear ep, trimmed with deckle scissors, sprayed it with Krylon matte spray as I didn't want it glossy and layered it onto black cardstock. Wrapped it with crimped gold wire and layered onto background using foam mounting tape. Stamped 'Dream' again onto white shrink plastic with chalk ink, trimmed with deckle scissors, shrank, and added to card. I finished it by blitzing some Gold Krylon paint pen onto the bottom right and top left corner areas.

TMTA - Men

The theme this week on Think Monday Think ATC is men. The background is done with Radiant Rain daubers. First Mallard green all over the white cardstock and then Spiced pumpkin dabbed around the edges. Brilliance moonlight white ink was dabbed on in the area where the faces would be. Image (Time to Stamp) was stamped with Versamark and embossed with detail black. I also tapped the corner of the Versamark pad along the top edge and embossed that in black. The word "gentlemen" is from another stamp (Time to Stamp) and I stamped that with Versamark ink and embossed with detail black on a scrap piece of cardstock that was also colored with the mallard green dauber and moonlight white ink, cut out and added it and 3 brads to the card.

4 X 4 Friday

The theme for 4 x 4 Friday this week is birds. I'm a couple of days late with my entry but here it is. The
back- ground was done first with Radiant Rain daubers. Large eggs were stamped with Stazon timber brown. The plants were stamped with Versamark and some embossed in green and some in silver. Some extra branches are stamped at the bottom with Stazon Black and then more plants embossed over it in the corner. The bird is stamped onto acetate with black stazon, cut out and attached with Golden solf gel medium matte. Flourish and "Feathered Friend" is stamped with Versamark and embossed with white. All stamps are from Time to Stamp.
