Typography

Typography is the theme of the current challenge at Daring Cardmakers and I thought it was a great chance to use my new stamp set by Indigo Blu called Little Voice. This is a great set and mostly just words apart from this car image which I thought was great fun. Indigo Blu have also launched a challenge on their blog and the first challenge is Blue so I've combined both challenges for this card. I've stamped the text/image with Pacific Point ink and added some pan Pastels around the edge. The backing paper is from the Chronology pack by Papermania but the colour wasn't quite right so I've added some Pan Pastels lightly over it to tone it in. The embossed panel is made with a Cuttlebug folder and the sanded lightly to distress it. I'm also entering this into the Polka Doodles challenge which this week is Distressing

  3. Great card! And I love that quote - maybe because I know the feeling...... The blue background looks really interesting. Did you use some resist technique on it?
