Hey friends!
I cannot tell you how incredibly thrilled I am to be sharing this project with you. I have been invited to be a Guest Designer over on the Ranger blog and I hope you’ll head over there and check out my project. You can find the project HERE.

To start things off, I chose three colors from Simon Hurley’s new line – Simon Hurley create. I used Overzealous, Remember Me, and Triple Berry. With the Mini Ink Blending Tool + Replacement Foam Pads, I blended on each color, overlapping each one to get a cool blend of the colors where they met.

Next, I laid the Backsplash stencil on top of my blended background. I used the Ranger Mister to spritz on a coat of water. I let this sit for 15 to 20 seconds before removing the stencil so that the water had a chance to react with the ink. The result is a cool ghosting effect where the stencil design appears darker than the rest of the blended background.

I used Enamel Accents in Black Tie and Glacier White to add a little interest to the background. I put a little of each on my Ranger Craft Mat and spritzed them with water. I used the Splatter Brush to flick the color on to my background.

I chose to use the Trampoline Friends stamp set for this card. It’s so fun and lighthearted. I used two strips of black card stock and heat embossed the sentiments ‘I’m so flipping excited’ and ‘for you’ in white embossing powder. I adhered these to my card panel using Multi Medium Matte.

I chose the cute dog stamp as well as three of the silly bird image. I stamped these with black ink and colored them using Copic markers. I cut them out by hand and adhered them to my card panel. For the dog, I cut the little areas under his arms so it looks like he’s hanging on the black banner strip.

I mounted the card panel on foam to add a bit of dimension and then adhered this to a white A2 card base. That finished off the card!

I hope you love this silly card and that you’ll check out my post over on the Ranger blog and leave me some love.
Hugs and love to you all,

Love it! Great techniques and cuteness!
