Stampin’ on a Wacky Wednesday!
Good morning everyone! Our Wacky Wednesday Challenge is brought to us by the delightful Broni Holcombe! Broni has challenged everyone to use flowers on their projects. Flowers! You might choose paper flowers, silk flowers, die-cut flowers, or stamped flowers … but just incorporate flowers into your creation. Everyone who plays along and links their flower creation to the Rubbernecker blog post will be entered to win a 40% coupon on a shopping trip at Rubbernecker! Just remember to link your creation to the Wacky Wednesday #23 blog post by or before next Monday, August 10!
I’ve used one of my shortened front layouts for this card, which allows a portion of the back flap to be seen when the card is closed. Dry pressure embossing was added to the back flap to be seen from the front. The image was stamped and colored twice, allowing me to cut out and layer one of the images atop the other with foam tape. Edges of the lifted image have been curled to add dimension. Tiny beads create the sunflower centers, while Spica glitter pens add a tiny touch of shimmer to the image.
