Festive Friday #0081 - Earth Day
It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and a Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.
This week’s challenge #FF0081 Earth Day.
Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!
For today's challenge I selected blue, earth/globe and ombre to create this pretty card featuring the Beautiful World Stamp Set. I hope you will join us in our challenge this week. I can’t wait to see what YOU create.
I created my ombre background using a Sponge Brayer and Pacific Point ink. Check out my Youtube Video to learn more about how I created this effect.
Instructions
- Cut Pretty Peacock cardstock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and fold in half to form card base.
- Cut Brass Foil 4" x 5 1/4"
- Cut Shimmer White cardstock 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" (you will trim this after creating the ombre effect)
- Use a Sponge Brayer and Pacific Point ink to create ombre effect. Ink up brayer and start at one end and move up the piece of cardstock. Re-ink and repeat until you get the depth of colour that you want.
- Trim piece to 3 7/8" x 5 1/8".
- Let dry completely before embossing!
- Stamp sentiment using Versamark.
- Apply Gold Embossing Powder and heat.
- Adhere to Brass Foil piece using Stampin' Seal.
- Adhere to card base using Stampin' Seal.
- Cut out globe stand and globe from Brass Foil.
- Cut out background circle from Pretty Peacock cardstock.
- Adhere globe to circle using Multipurpose Adhesive Glue.
- Adhere to the card base using Stampin' Seal.

Your background is beautiful and I love that globe! I need to get that set out again! Lovely card, Melva!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Melva! Your ombre effect is stunning. I love how the brass globe "pops" against the Pacific Point. Have a wonderful weekend!
