A Splatter Grunge Card

 Well we have had our first official snowfall! The snow has to stay on the ground for several hours before we declare it official. This time we got about an inch of snow on Monday and we still have some on the lawn. It melted quickly on the roads though but not before there were several accidents. People just refuse to slow down in bad weather.

I've been busy making a couple of quilts that are being donated to a women's shelter way, way up North. So far North it is a fly-in community. I get so busy during the day that by night time I forget to post anything on the blog. 

 Today’s card is a little different than my normal cards. I was playing with my Perfect Pearls and/or other ones like it and this is what I came up with. I think a teenage boy or pre-teen age boy would like this one.

                           

 The background is just black cardstock. Before mounting it, I stamped some splotches with VersaMark using a Stampin' Up Grunge stamp and then adding some bright blue Perfect Pearls. Then I took another piece of black cardstock and swooshed on VersaMark ink and dropped bit of various coloured Perfect Pearls on it and brushed it around. Then I used a splatter die to die cut those funny shapes and glued them on. The ‘happy’  was die cut twice from black cardstock and glued to the splatters and then I used another large die to die cut the ‘birthday’ in bright blue. It was then mounted on bright blue card base.

That’s all for a cold Wednesday, November 29, 2023.

Cheers
