For my project today I’m using a brand new set available from Jan’s Digi Stamps called Malt Shop. Isn’t this set so much fun??? I chose to use the cool retro jukebox for my focal and I had to use the b/w version because I was dying to color it up myself! Its been forever since I used my alcohol markers and at the request of a crafty friend I dug them out to test my printer ink as she was looking to buy the same model. I was pleased to not have any smudging from the Promarkers, but man am I out of practice using them. Not only that, I had forgotten to use appropriate paper, so this was colored on Bristol which tended to bleed the marker color a little. It was fun to shade though, and I’d like to dedicate some time to playing with them again soon before I forget again how to use them! After the image was colored, I used a rounded rectangle frame die to cut it out and mounted it on fun foam to pop it up. For the card front, I embossed matching green cardstock with an embossing folder from Park Lane called Diamond. Now, I didn’t have a current use for the sentiments in the set so I ended up using a sentiment stamp from my stash to send to someone who needs a little encouragement. I left the inside blank this time so I could have more room to write a personal message. For embellishment, I added tiny music notes from another stamp set in my stash. Here’s a better look at the embossed background and the coloring:
