It's funny really that tonight I have been working on a grunge style card and it was a grunge style card that was a winner! I like the idea of grunge but my style is more clean and simple and I find it difficult to get my head around this apparent conflict. This week at Addicted to CAS the theme is Grunge whilst bearing in mind the need to produce a clean and simple card - the embodiment of my conflict!
So here is the card I will be entering into the challenge:
 |
| The sentiment has been white embossed and then the background water coloured using distress inks |
 |
| The sentiment has been set on dimensional adhesive |
I used the following:
Distress Inks - Vintage Photo, Tea Dye, Spiced Marmalade and Mustard Seed
Versamark
Stampendous White Embossing Powder
Stampin Up Gorgeous Grunge stamp set
Kaisercraft Clear Stamp - Way of Life
Enjoy!
Wow, Elaine, you've combined CAS and grunge brilliantly here ... fabulous splattered and lined background and such a vibrant colour combo! Congratulations on your Top Three spot at CASC&S and thanks so much for playing along with ATCAS! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVED that grunge card that was selected as a winner, Elaine, and now I LOVE this one, too! From where I sit, there is no apparent conflict between CAS and grunge in your beautiful work! I think it is mwah and I think you have another winner!! Hugs, Darnell
