Challenge Anniversary Card

I really liked this LO for SC179 on SCS when I saw it. I tried some new stuff when I was stamping. you might have to click on the picture to enlarge it to see the details better, but I will try to explain them.

The first question I asked myself was,"Can bleach go bad?" I wanted to stamp the little flower images from "Fairytale Wedding" on the Light Blue strip with bleach so they were white...well no go, the images would not appear...... I took the whole sopping Napkin of bleach and pounched the paper with it finally getting the light cloudy images on the Blue. I stamped the image with SU Basic Gray Ink and the trimmed the strips to size...I have used bleach before so dont ask me why the flowers didnt work...The last gallon is finally gone so a new bottle will be tried next time. I took the same color of Light Blue and then stamped the "Happy Anniversary" sentiment from a Michaels Dollar find. Then I embossed it in the "Diamonds in The Rough" Cuttlebug folder.

I used two Queen Co. Black Brads from "Kissy Fit" to add some depth. I free handed the Dots on the Black full card background with my Sakura Clear Glitter gel pen(only the part showing on the top)..then embossed the Rose from "" on black using White Craft Ink and Kaliedescope Clear Emossing Powder.

I think the card is very pretty...The only step I should probably have done was cut a white circle out with my Cricut to mat the black Rose Image to help it Pop...It was mounted on dimensionals and I think it still turned out great.

Hope you enjoyed it also...

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
