I got an order from Sweet Stamp Shop this week. Their images are hand drawn, simple and fun. Their customer service is wonderful. Shipment was super fast and there was a hand written note on the packing slip! I just love that. One of the sets that I got was Spectacle. When I saw this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge - Name That Tune, my song of inspiration popped right into my head: The Future's So Bright I Gotta Wear Shades by Timbuck 3. Ah those 80's! I ran across Stampin' Queens Sketch Challenge, which I had not seen before. I used it for my layout, and this card is the result of all of this combined inspiration. The sentiment is computer generated, and I got perfect placement on the die cut by using yet another technique I learned on PTI's Make It Monday tutorial HERE. I had lots of fun with this one.
Supplies:
Paper~Summer Sun, Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety.
Stamps~Sweet Stamp Shop Spectacle.
Ink~VersaMark, VersaFine Onyx Black.
Accessories~Nestabilities, Dimensionals, Self Adhesive Rhinestones, black embossing powder, Cuttlebug EF, PTI Double Ended Banners die.
Thank you so much for coming by and thank you always for your lovely comments and feedback.
