A blog hop wouldn’t be complete without an inspiration! Each designer has made a card based on one theme from the class. Here’s a little number from myself, inspired by Graphic and Grunge!
I used a plethora of stamps on this one. I tweaked the Quinn’s ABC’s stamp set from Lawn Fawn a bit by adding depth and definition to the letters with black pen. I stamped Unity Stamps Painted Punchinella in Memento Luxe Dandelion, the triangle pattern from MFT Mod Borders and the bike from Hero Arts Joy Ride in Memento Luxe Teal Zeal, and the sentiment & Altenew Faux Veneers stars in Versafine Onyx Black.
I finished the card with some mist paint splats, an odd strip or two of washi tape, and a little die cut from Studio Calico which I secured with a staple.
I’m entering this card in the Hip On Handwriting Challenge in the Moxie Fab World 🙂
