It's my first time hosting a challenge over at StampNation! StampNation is an online resource where "paper crafters share the love of stamping and card making! You can hone your skills with quality Master Classes and tutorials, learn alongside fellow stampers of all abilities and ask questions, share your struggles and grow you paper crafting skills with members who get it, who get you!"
My card today was created by first by applying Sangria, Be Mine and Sauna inks to Ultra Smooth White Cardstock using the direct ink to paper technique-I just swiped the ink pad right across the paper and let the ink do the blending for a beautiful, vibrant mountain sky. Then I used Spruce ink to stamp the mountains and trees from the Mountain of Thanks Stamp Set, die cut with the Mountain of Thanks Dies. These were adhered to the card right under the mountain sky. I finished with a stamped sentiment in Sangria from Mountain of Thanks-the font on this stamp set is just perfect. Finally, I adhered some clouds from the Mountain of Thanks Dies to the sky.
This card came together really quickly-I hope it inspires you and I hope you get a chance to play along if you are a StampNation member! If not, please consider joining the StampNation community!
