Party Like You Mean It, Simon Says Stamp
Ok, I guess I’m on a little run of rainbow creations – nothing wrong with that right? I started this card off with white embossing Simon Says Stamps Grid Background Cling Stamp. Then I proceeded to watercolor each square in rainbow colors. I started with a layer of regular Distress Ink then on top of that painted a little Distress Oxide.
I used more water when I wanted the color to really move around. Once the background was finished I stamped and embossed “Party” and “Like you mean it” from the Cathy Zielske Birthday Palooza clear stamp set.
I filled in some of the squares with the Lawn Fawn glue tube and added Lawn Fawn Chunky Glitter. I added a few iridescent sequins and then a few black enamel dots.
I seriously LOVE the sparkle that the Chunky Glitter gives- it’s a party all on its own!
