Here's a card I made today. I found this stamped image when cleaning my stamp area. It is a retired TAC stamp. I colored it with watercolor crayons and the VersaMarker, then embossed it with clear powder. I used a sheet of cardstock that is white on one side for the card base. I used the Scorpal to add three vertical lines about an inch from the fold and tore the right edge. The white splash is opaque white Stazon applied with a sponge. I used Palette violet to stamp the sentiment and sponge the torn edge. After putting in the three eyelets, I covered the inside with printed paper to hide the back of the eyelets and added a 1 inch piece down the right edge, leaving room to write a note.

Here's a sympathy card for a male friend I made today. The picture was taken by me on my trip to the west coast last Easter. I printed it on regular paper, mounted it on two pieces of card stock, then stamped a piece of acetate the same size as the card front with cotton white opaque Stazon, and attached it with brads before gluing the pieces onto the card base. In the past I have had problems designing sympathy cards. But now I use pictures I have taken with my digital camera of scenery, add acetate, and really like the way they turn out.
