Congratulations

Hello everyone.  I’m back today to share my final card inspiration from Whimsy Stamps (WS) last release of the year.  It features the new Congratulations Word and Shadow die set.


On Bristol paper and using blender brushes, ink blended Milled Lavender, Picked Raspberry and Seedless Preserves distress inks (DI) before die cutting congratulations from it.  Covered the cutout with VersaMark ink, then heat embossed with clear embossing powder (EP) for some shine.  Repeated the process for a total of three times to give it dimension.  Its shadow was die cut a few times from thick paper scraps to stack for dimension.  Took the previously released Stardust Swirl die next and die cut a stencil from acetate.  Ink blended Milled Lavender DI over the stencil first then covered with VersaMark ink to heat emboss with clear glitter EP for some sparkle.  


The penguin from Penguin Lean on Me was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured with Copic Sketch markers and fussy cut out.  

Black - C8, 100
Gray - C00, C1, C3, 0
Orange - YR02, YR09, R05
Pink - R81

The sentiment from Simple Sentiment Strips was heat embossed with clear EP before applying Seedless Preserves DI over it.  Excess ink was wiped off with a paper towel (emboss resist).  Assembled the card onto a white card base to finish.

I love the gorgeous ombre die-cut sentiment with the fabulous shine and dimension, Trina! The font style is cute and so is your happy penguin! The Stardust Swirl diy stencil goes very well with this occasion and makes a wonderful design!

A very effective card. I love how you colored the sentiment, it's so unusual to direct the color intensity diagonally, not vertically!
