Chevron Chic

Yayyy! It's weekend again! Which means I'm allowed a super late bed time and I can sleep in tomorrow morning :) It's almost 3am here, and I just had some midnight supper to calm my growling tummy, LOL.

This card is inspired by the Chevron Chic challenge at Moxie Fab World and a sketch by Lucy Abrams on Lily Pad Cards. I got to play with some Sculpey clay & a mold from Mold Muse and the result is a cute rose that I used for this card. I'll share my hilarious experience on the clay-baking in my next post.
Supplies: Lawn fawn Sew Lovely clear stamps, Lawn fawn Bannerific clear stamps, Hero Arts sentiment stamp, Rose made from sculpey clay, Rhinestones, MME fine and dandy Tickled pink PP, Zig brushables marker, Distress inkpad in Tumbled glass, Scattered Strawn and Spun Sugar, Pop up dots, Staz-on Jet black, Clear acetate.

I used the dressform stamp from lawn fawn to create a custom background with distress inks, then stamped it again using Staz-on on a piece of acetate/transparency. Then using some pop-up dots, I aligned it on the white cardstock base. The dimension is not really clear in this photo, and the pop dots are hidden under the banner, rose and the blink on the corner. I would say the card actually look much better IRL.

I'm also submitting this card to Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Sparkle & Shine.

Time for me to get some beauty sleep. Thanks for dropping by and have a happy weekend everyone!
