Hi! This card was made for today's Ways To Use It Challenge: Get Packing.... We could use packing supplies, or PACKING Stamps like luggage...
Well...I had this set from H&M Stamps sitting on my table, (HIDDEN from Speedy the Cat!!!!),and I don't have ANY travel stamps...So....Out came the packing tape...
Then, I went through a BUNCH of photos looking for the PERFECT one for today's card! I found this one! It's of Markie 4 years ago on July 4! HOW PERFECT!!!
Then, I went to Office Max and had several color copies made of this photo. I went home, and stuck CLEAR packing tape right onto the photocopy! Then, I CUT out the image around the tape and soaked the tape in the bathroom sink. Then, I carefully RUBBED the photocopy paper away! This gave me a TRANSPARENT copy of the photo!!! (Granted, it was only 2 inches wide, but it worked for what I was going for!)
The, I stamped the sentiment from this set: "Live for the Moment," randomly on a Whisper White piece of CS.
Next, I adhered the packing tape/photo to the card stock! WOW!
The image was stamped in basic black and colored with SU! Markers. The ovals were cut with Nestibilities.
The rhinestones came from a sticker from Target Dollar Spot!
