Exchange card - stamped image on polished stone, scalloped diecut and tracing wheel texture
An exchange card for this month! For this card I used a large envelope and created a white card to fit inside. I started with this circle with a stamped image from my stash. It is a SU image stamped in blue on a circle die cut of polished stone background on glossy photo paper. I created the background first - a brayered piece from my stash that coordinated well. I cut it in two and mounted a coordinating piece of blue cardstock in between. I added texture to the piece using my pattern tracing wheel - a line on each of the top and bottom pieces and a variety of all over lines in the blue section. Next, I added a length of coral gros grain ribbon and then mounted the background to my card front. I found a green scalloped circle die cut in my stash with I watercoloured to coordinate with my card. I mounted my circle focal element to the scalloped circle and added to my card using 3D foam tape. I found this coordinating stamped greeting (SU) in my stash and flagged the end before mounting it to my card. Therese
