Rubber-stamped

Wedding cardBY KAREN GRANT

Combine rubber stamping with embellishing for a one-of-a-kind wedding card (perfect for a fun couple).

Instructions:1. With the black ink pad, stamp “Happy Wedding Day”

randomly on the silver cardstock. You may want to pre-stamp onto a blank sheet of paper to remove some of theblack ink before stamping onto your silver. That will makethis background more subtle.

2. On your white cardstock, stamp a male figure and afemale figure using Crayon Kids stamps (or something simi-lar). Color the male’s pants black. Cut out around each fig-ure, then adhere to your silver card using double-sided tapecut from your roll of Treasure Tape™.

3. Cut pieces of Treasure Tape™ to fit over these areasonly: the male’s shirt area, pants, and shoes. These can beseparate pieces of tape, trimmed to fit within the stampedareas.

4. Cut pieces of Treasure Tap™ in the same way to coverthese areas on the female figure: body/dress, shoes, and cuta piece to resemble a veil.

5. Working the male first, remove the red liner to exposethe sticky tape. Outline the shirt with 1/8” Ribbon 3231Moonstone. Outline the pants with Black Facets. Attachblack Vintage Finds or buttons on shirt and shoes as shownin the photo.

6. On the female, remove the red liner to expose stickytape. Outline dress and shoes in 1/8” Ribbon 3231. Adherewhite/pearl Vintage Finds or buttons on veil, dress, andshoes as shown in photo.

7. Place card in a shallow pan and cover with DiamondBeadlets®. Make sure all remaining sticky areas are coveredwith the clear beads.
