Challenge: Anything Goes with Numbers
November 19th - 25th, 2013
We
are celebrating Numbers this week. All of our design team members will
be creating projects using the Bazzill Basic Paper Countdown to
Christmas collection and the
Paper Smooches Digits stamp set.
My
Christmas card uses the Digits stamp set from Paper Smooches, in
addition to the Alphadot stamp set. I created the green part of the
tree using the Paper Smooches Clouds die set, and the brown trunk using
the Trees 1 die set. After cutting the three green cloud shapes, I
inked the edges to create depth, assembled the tree, and embellished
with gems.
Another
trick I used on this card is embossing the sentiment. Because the
cardstock was textured, it was difficult to get a nice, solid black
stamped image. However, with the embossing powder, it leveled off as it
melted, creating a much more solid and impactful image.
So
let's see what you can do with numbers, folks! Bring out number
stamps, number dies, or whatever works for you. We can't wait to see
your cards, scrapbook pages, or even a 3D project with a lot of numbers
like an Advent calendar!
Thanks for playing along! We will be announcing the winners on November 29, 2013.
