This project was inspired by a professional challenge from my dear friend Amy Salib from “Make Something INC” — a fellow demonstrator. While perusing through the catalog…we both looked at the stamp and said, “I know what I want to do with this one…”. We laughed and didn’t want to share our ideas but rather wanted to challenge each other. What is possible?
We both agreed to buy the EVERY CHAPTER stamp set and challenged each other to create a card –not showing each other the final result– until we posted the card in the mail to each other.
I was really challenged to create a unique project. Here is the card I posted to Amy last week. It is a layered project using the EVERY CHAPTER stamp as the center image and layers of accents/embellishments using the Layering Designs Vellum, Gilded Leafing, and Watercolor Pencil coloring. Refer to my Video Tutorial for step-by-step instructions and then go to my ONLINE store for all the available products. Please seek Amy’s information (see photo) for her card information!
