You're So Rad

I'm finally able to get back to my blog after finishing school for the semester. I can now focus on updating my blog on a more regular basis and enjoy making cards to share. I really didn't have a motive for the card I'm sharing today, I just looked at my craft supplies and put this together.

Unfortunately the photo didn't come out well enough to read the gold lettering but it says "you're so rad."I used the arrows from the sharp backdrops from Lawn Fawn to stamp the background. I really like how the Hero Arts wet cement ink turned out with the arrows. Then I took a Tim Holtz die and cut out the shape and stamped the "RAD" sentiment. Finally I added some Studio Calico wood veneers and some pearls to finish it off.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (kraft) white (Neenah Solar White)
Stamps: Sharp Backdrops (Lawnfawn) Rad (Kelly Purkey)
Ink: Wet Cement and Grape Juice (Hero Arts)
Other: Tim Holtz Styled Labels die, wood veneers (Studio Calico) gold pen (Uniball) pearls (Kaiser)
