Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide Ink Blending & Rubbernecker Stamps New Spring Release

 Today we are celebrating Rubbernecker Stamps' awesome new spring release!  There are lots of fun new stamp and die sets in several different styles--check them out here!

I made this card using one of the new release stamps called Bird/Rose Background Strip set.  There are actually two stamps in this set and I'll be sharing another card with the rose stamp soon!

First I inked up a panel of white card stock with the NEW, and beautiful, Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide ink.  I just received my order of the Oxides and Distress inks and sprays and just had to use these on a card!  Be sure the ink is dry before the next step!

Next I used an anti-static powder pouch before stamping the Rose Background Strip stamp with Versamark ink.  I sprinkled on some gold embossing powder and heat set it.  I trimmed the piece to 2-¼" x 5-¼".  I adhered a strip of gold mirror card stock to the right edge and added foam tape to the back.

For the card base, I just sprayed a few squirts of Saltwater Taffy Distress Oxide spray across the panel.  When it was dry, I adhered the heat embossed piece to the card base.

I used the You Script w/Shadow die for my sentiment.  The You is die cut four times and the layers are adhered together with glue before adhering it to the gold mirror shadow layer.  I used a sentiment from the Sweetest Sunrise set and partially stamped the "you make my day" (with Versamark) by covering the "you" with tape while inking.  I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder.  To finish up, I carefully added a few gold spatters to the card around the sentiment area.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Hello friends!  My card today features the beautiful Sweetest Sunrise set by Rubbernecker Stamps!  This was such a quick and easy card to make with a stamped and embossed background to set off the flowers!

I've made a quick list for you of my steps to make this sweet card:

• Place an A2 card panel into a MISTI stamping tool.
• Stamp the Wavy Vertical Lines with the gray inks from Color Fuse #12 in an ombré pattern.  Ink the lightest color at the bottom about ¼ of the way up and continue with each darker ink.
• Leaving the card panel and stamp in place, re-stamp it again with Versamark Clear embossing ink.  Add clear embossing powder and heat set.
• Die cut the striped panel with the largest Nested Rectangle Scallop Die.
• Adhere to an A2 card base after inking the edges with Hearth ink.  Just swipe the ink pad around the edges for a coordinating look!

• Stamp the image from the Sweetest Sunrise Set in Copic safe black ink.  Color with alcohol markers.
• Use the coordinating die to cut the flower bunch out.  Add foam tape to the back and adhere to the card.
• Stamp the greeting from the Sweetest Sunrise set onto some coordinating dark gray card stock with Versamark ink.  Add white embossing powder and heat set.
• Trim the sentiment into a strip, add foam tape, and then adhere it to the card.
• Add dots of Dandelion Yellow Nuvo Crystal Drops.

Thank you so very much for stopping by today!  Have a wonderful, blessed day!
