Here is a fun stamp shaped card that I created with the Sentimentals cartridge, my Gypsy and Cricut, along with the fabulous Viva Decor Pearl Pens from ScrapbookPal. These Pearl Pens are a fabulous way to add texture and shine to your image and they dry in a short amount of time and stay raised...not flat......and the best part is that you can make them any size you want to.
Here is how you make this card:
- Using your Gypsy, Design Studio, or Cricut Craftroom program, weld two of the
shadows from the Sentimentals cartridge together at 5 inches and cut out with your Cricut onto white cardstock. - Cut out the
image at 5 inches in black and adhere to the white card base. - Cut out the layer for the
image at 5 inches in red. Run this cut through your Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots embossing folder and then layer and adhere over the black piece. Using the Viva Decor Pearl Pen in black, place little dots along the edges. - Add a black ribbon around the center of the card (going through the slots from the stamp image) and tie a bow on the left side of the card.
- Cut out the
crown image at 5 inches in yellow. Place a sentiment in the center of the crown and add some Viva Decor Pearl Pen in cream to the upper portions of the crown as pearl accents. You can also add a few white lines with a white Gelly Roll pen. Adhere the crown to the card with dimensional adhesive.
