Now on to my card for the day.

 

The card I am sharing today is from the Stampin’ Up! Silhouette Scenes stamp set.  Did not think when making the card that I had used the See A Silhouette DSP yesterday, just realized it when I started typing this–O’ well we shall endure!

The challenge I am entering today is a new one for me that stampin’ friend  Karen Finkle introduced it to me.  The challenge is to choose a book you like and use as the reference for your card.  The challenge is with The Library and as the Librarian is busy we are to choose our own book.  My book and a favorite is Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird.  I read this to my sons when they were young, then when they went to high school had to read it again on their own–smile.  One of my sons has read it so many times, he can recite it. 

This was a simple card to make a little masking on the Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock panel that is the art panel.  The first thing I did was cut a Whisper White card stock panel for the art piece.  

I cut a panel the size of my card front from masking paper.  In the center of this panel—well it is not really the center—but I cut a large circle using the largest circle from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched  Shapes Dies. It really didn’t matter which set I used as I just needed a circle.

After cutting the circle, I placed it aside for the moment and placed the negative portion left, over my panel of Whisper White card stock.  Using a Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Sponge and Stampin’ Up! So Saffron ink I sponged inside the circle creating a large moon. Finishing with the moon, I pulled the moon mask from the card front and using the circle I had cut out, I placed the circle over the sponged moon.

Using another piece of Stampin’ Sponge and Tuxedo Memento Black ink I sponged back ink over the panel of card stock creating a dark night with a large moon.

Using the branch die from the Stampin’ Up! Silhouette Scenes Bundle, I cropped the tree, to make the tree trunk longer, I did not place my cutting plate over the entire tree branch die, so it would only cut a portion of the tree branch.  After cutting the branch with the die, I drew a tree trunk on the Basic Black card stock and fussy cut it—thus extending the tree trunk.

I placed the tree branch on the art panel over the moon so I would know where to stamp my little girl, using the little girl stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Silhouette Scenes Bundle I stamped the image at the bottom of the panel as if she was standing on the ground.  Now that the art panel is finished it can be adhered to the Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock base using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Now that the image is stamped, I can adhere the tree branch using Multipurpose Glue.  I stamped the greeting in the lower corner of the art panel again using Tuxedo Memento Black ink.

The inside sentiment is stamped on a panel of Whisper White card stock in Tuxedo Memento Black ink using stamps from the Stampin’ Up! Well Said Stamp Set

Thank you for stopping by today.   I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.
