CS Take It Make It: Take a Technique

Hello everyone!! I’m here with CS Take It Make It: Take a Technique Challenge Inspiration for February.

Our theme is Take a Technique: Text Me!!

For this month’s challenge the technique we would like you to use text or script background stamps, or text paper in your projects. Any language, any style. Old book pages, bits torn from magazines, scrapbooking papers.. whatever you can find! … The ‘text’ part does NOT include sentiments, phrase or single word stamps…. think backgrounds!!

This should be super fun to see what you come up with.

Take a look at my card:

Hello (TIMI)

I am in love with this card! I love how stamped image looks on top of the text paper. Beautiful. I have to try this technique again.

Here is how I created this card:

I cut my card base out of Recollection Black Cardstock.
Then I cut retired Stampin’ Up! DSP to the size of the card base.
After that I stamped Winnie and Walter The Big, the Bold and the Happy hello sentiment using My Favorite Things Hybrid Ink.
Then I used the huge flower from Simon Say Stamp/Winnie and Walter Big Bloom Stamp set.
I used one Copic R46 marker to color the flower in.
To add color to the DSP, I used Distress Ink Vintage Photo to add color to the edges of the card.
To finish the card off, I added Your Next Stamp Black Gumdrops.

So what do you think? I’m in love, are you?
