skyline

This card was made as homework for Clean and Simple 3, class, Day 4, More Optical Illusions, with the skyline and blue skies with gold embossed stars.   I didn't have exactly what the class requirements were, but I had some star stamps and a suitable saying, and I made the skyline stamp by cutting into some black rubber that had been hanging around in my stash for years, I used a Die-namics cutting die, "Skyline Border" and used Sellotape 1/2" double sided tape to stick it onto a piece of clear dvd cover.   I keep all these odd bits and pieces hoping they will come in handy, and they eventually do!!  however the stamp I made turned out ok, I used a spellbinders square cutting die from "Majestic Elements" to make the mask for the card front and I only had two blue ink pads from Memento which were "Danube Blue" and "Bahama Blue" so I used these and the gold embossing powder is Ranger Super Fine Detail Gold.   These are still difficult cards for me.
