Yes, the tone of this card is slightly sarcastic. Would the recipient below that the giver was really overflowing with happiness given the lack of color and the grunginess? I thought it was funny.
To make this card, you’ll need the following products:
- Smoky Slate card stock (5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″ along the long side)
- Basic White card stock ( 4″ x 5 1/4″) and scrap
- Basic Gray and Memento Tuxedo Black inks
- Bottled Happiness Stamp Set
- Stylish Shapes dies/Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder
- Basic Supplies (Snips, Trimmer, Adhesives, Blocks)
- Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine
To make this card, follow these steps:
- Run the front of the card base through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Brick & Mortar embossing folder.
- Drag the Memento Ink pad along the edges of the card base to give it a dirty look
- Stamp the squat jug image from the Bottled Happiness stamp set in Basic Gray on the Basic White piece. After inking the image up, I stamped 3 times to give it varied shades. I did this vertically in a pattern. Adhere this panel to the card front.
- Stamp the sentiment in Tuxedo Black and cut out using a banner die from the Stylish Shapes set.
- Tie a piece of black twine into a knot and adhere to the back of the banner. Use Dimensionals to place this on the Basic White panel.
- Finish the card using a few Classic Matte Dots.
