Shirt in a Spin

This is a quick and simple card I made recently for another brother-in-law.


The shirt images were made using a stamp from Hampton Arts called Scattered Shirt.  Versafine Majestic Blue ink was used to stamp the images on to white card and on to the blue card it was stamped with Versamark ink and then embossed using white detail embossing powder and this gave positive and negative images to work with.  The shirts were die cut using a Spellbinders square nestabilities die and then taped together to make a large topper.  I rotated the images so that it continued the scattered look.


The sentiment in the middle was made using a stamp from Hero Arts and majestic blue ink and then die cut and layered using Spellbinders square nestabilities dies. 


The blue striped paterned paper used in the backing layers came from the Papermania Burleigh Blue collection by Jesse Edwards.  This is a lovely collection of papers with designs suitable for both feminine and masculine projects.  The white striped backing paper was made by stamping the canvas stripe Hero Arts stamp on to white card using Versafine Majestic Blue ink.  


Dark navy grosgrain ribbon and corners cut using a Quickutz die were the added embellishments to this card.

Thanks for reading today
