You're not old, you're a classic

Another Cardmaking session for me!

 

CARD #1

 

Masculine Card -  

The Altenew Vintage Vibes stamps & dies were still on my desk from my last card.  So I went with a similar layout, but decided to do a 'shaker' element for the screen. 

 

I stamped all the layers of the TV, then die cut it out twice and joined the layers together for added dimension.

The assembled diecut TV was then mounted to the front with foam tape for added dimension.

Sentiment was stamped with black ink direct to the cardfront.

 

The ONLY BLING on this card was the shaker elements!

CARD #2 

 I used some stencils I have had for a while and ink blended them using slightly different that traditional Christmas colours. 

 

Just the plain ink colour was a bit bland, so I re-positioned the stencil and went over it with Kindy Glitz/Stickles ...... I think it added just the right amount of sparkle.  Sentiment 'christmas' was stamped underneath baubles.

 

 

The card front was mounted onto some copper mirror cardstock, then added to the 300 gsm card base.

 

"Merry" was diecut several times with white cardstock and once with the mirror cardstock, layered then attached to the cardfront.

The Tag followed the same process for the card - ink blending and adding sparkles, mounted onto mirror cardstock and copper organza ribbon added.
