Card Parts Birthday

Well, I did spend some time in my stamping room yesterday afternoon. I got four cards made - yippee! I spent some time in there this morning already, too, after I got up really early. I've been working with "card parts." That seems to have gotten me going again. I didn't get any cards made this morning, but I have several pieces laying around to work with next.

 This card uses two card parts - the panel that the sentiment is stamped on and the background piece. I believe that I did the sentiment background with distress ink on an acrylic block. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. I matted with black and mounted on foam squares. The bottom layer was done with a Fiskars texture plate. After embossing, I must have brayered some distress ink over it. I matted that layer with black, also. I think this card will go to my nephew.

 Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

    I Love all of your card parts cards. You have been talking about it and got me picking through the extra stuff on my own desk.

    Note: I have been trying to post while on my pad, but the robot checker won't let me get past the photos. Had me thinking I was inept for 3-4 tries lol! I came to my lap top to give it one more try.

    I really like the simplicity of this card...I really need to start a "parts" box and then i need to be motivated to use the parts. Thanks for sharing!
