The One with the Lime All Yours

Hello everyone.

Today, I have a project using the Time for Tea Designs Squeeze the Day Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.

The card size is A2 (4.25in x5.5in.) The front panel is cut to 3.25in x 4.75in. This is my favorite size card to create. I have tried so many others but this size is the one that keeps my heart happy. My card bases are typically made using a neutral gray cardstock. These two details about my cards rarely change.

Background

I have a healthy collection of stencils in my stash. The background on this card was created using one of my stencils with a view different size splashes. I ink blended Oxide inks for the sky and the splash. I also cut out a glass shape for the focal image and ink blended the same colors on it. To get the glass shape I cut heavy weight white card stock at a 45 degree angle. I also sprayed the background panel with several shimmer sprays and that puppy shines! The rim on the glass is made with glass bead medium and white glitter dusted on top. I think next time I'll make one using Tejin like colors instead of salt/sugar inspiration. The lime is from the T4TD Squeeze the Day Stamp Set. I heat embossed it in white onto coordinating lime green cardstock and cut it out using the coordinating dies. I used a large glue dot to attach the lime to a toothpick and then to the "rim" of the glass.

Sentiment

The sentiment is also from the T4TD Squeeze the Day Stamp Set. I heat embossed them in white onto coordinating cardstock and cut them into strips. They are popped up using foam squares.

I hope that I've inspired you to create something today. Check out the Squeeze the Day Stamp Set in the T4TD shop.
