Moving company shows up today to estimate how many days it will take to pack us up, so I'm busy cleaning bathrooms so I don't look quite so much like a slob when then arrive. It's hard to keep up with the cleaning when you've been on the road as much as I have lately.
Anyway, my frantic cardmaking continues. Here's a graduation card for my son-in-law which also fits into Heart2Heart's Distress Challenge:
The stamps are from CTMH Rock the Block set. I stamped the swirls in Versamark on Kraft paper, used my stipple brush to swipe pearl paint in plain white, added black re-inker to more pearl paint and swiped a little more. Before dabbing the stars with a mix of black and white pearl paint, I ran black ink over the tops of the ridges to make them stand out more. The sentiment was highlighted with a white gel pen.
I thought the overall effect came off as cool grunge which is perfect for my dirt-bikin' SIL.
Until next time,
Becca
