Retarte Challenge 123
Hi Everyone! Today I’m so excited to share a card I made specially for the 4th Anniversary of Retarte Challenge. This challenge has give me a lot of wonderful moments in my creative live and I only have grateful words to the fabulous design team and followers. As usual the theme of this is Anything Goes and this is my take.
I started by creating a card base using Pool Party cardstock. Next, I pasted a tiny border on the lover part using a piece of designer paper and made a flower embossing using a Stampin Up Embossing Folder. With masking tape I created a banner on the upper part. I inked the area using Peacock Distress Ink. Then, I placed the Mini Dots and Dashes stencil from TCW over the inked area and inked the free areas applying VersaMagic Cloud White.
I dried the ink with the heat tool, but If you are patient you can wait until the pigment ink dry. After that I stamped the sentiment Hello Friend from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps, sponsor of this anniversary celebration, using VersaFine Onix and my Stamparatus.
The Design Team of Retarte Challenge features in each edition the images of our edition sponsor. Today I am using one from Limited Run Stamps. Between you and me one of my favorites, The Flower Mug that you can find HERE.
I printed the image on whisper white card stock and colored with Leisure Arts Premium Colored Pencils. After painted the image I fussy cut with my scissors and pasted over the decorated layer with dimensionals or double sided foam tape.
For this Challenge edition we have an amazing listing of Sponsors and I am so happy to share the generous prizes that they are offering to us!
