Here we are to a brand new challange over Simon Says Stamp! And this month we are having another great Guest Designer! I have been Simon Says Stamp! Guest Designer too in January and I was so scared and excited at the same time…so make sure to head over our Guest Designer page and give her a HUGE cyber hug and welcome her!
[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1809″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_column_text]I created this card and as background I used a Darkroom Door Stamp called Postcard. I stamped it over a piece of cardstock and used Distress Ink to color it. I mixed a couple of them (Bundled Sage, Mustard Seeds and Worn Lipstick).
I wanted this whole piece to look “dreamy” so I toned everything down with gesso and darkened up the side to accentuate the dreamy effect.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1812″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_column_text]I layered other stamped images (always from the Darkroom Door) and gave them the same texture. I loved to use Distress Ink to color the images, they give it a watercolor look yet really bold.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1810″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”zoom”][vc_column_text]I also used another stamp from Stampers Anonymous that was my focal point. I stamped it a two times. One was my base and the other stamped image I simply fussy cut some pieces and then adhered to the first image to create depth.
To color this stamp I used distress markers. It was so easy!
As always, as final touch I stitched around everything with my sewing machine. I love to add this final touch to my projects as it gives it a finish touch and also makes the project feel complete.
To back up this card I adhered a piece of card stock that is from Prima Marketing.[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”0″ images=”1808,1809,1810,1811,1812″ img_size=”large”][vc_column_text]

Gorgeous project Zoey!! Love all the colours and layers.
You are so sweet! Thanks for the kind welcome. And I am such a fan of your work that it was a bit intimidating to follow you as a guest designer! I love your card, especially all the layers. I loooove layers.

puoi ridere per il mio inglese. anzi devi!!
Don’t tell my hubby, but I’m kind of in love with the guy on your card! How could I not be? He is so very dapper and I love him not only for his artsy vibe, but also for his background!!! Wow! LOVE those layers! I honestly am such a fan of your style and aesthetic as it is right up my alley. What a talent you have and I always look forward to seeing your posts! Your grasp of color-blending and the way you combine whimsy and depth is second to none!!!
How lovely, Zoey! I really like the layering and the bright bold colors!
