It's my second week as January's Guest Designer over at Paper Smooches. This time I went completely CAS with one of Kim's new stamp sets - Silver and Gold, together with the new Awesome die:
I die cut the sentiment and covered it with a heap of Versamark, then smothered it in a mixture of pewter and navy embossing powders, heated it again and smothered it some more. It kind of looks like it's made out of metal don't you think? I stamped a light blue scattering of stars for the background, then added a couple of starry rows and flags. There's a couple of little, separate triangles in this set so I used one of those to add a little depth to the flags. A few splashes of 'paint' and it was all done.
Make sure you hop on over to the shop won't you - heaps of inspiration on how to use these new sets and dies, you'll be grabbing that credit card in no time!
Thanks for popping by,

ReplyDeleteCool, graphic, and full of bold impact, Claire ... love that die cut ... it really does look metallic! Hope temperatures have cooled down a little ... if not, you can always send a bit of warm over here! Hugs, Anita :)
