We have been creating with WRMK Vintage-T papers and embellishments, and I have come up with 4 cards you might like to have a try at.
Card #1 “Happy Holidays”
Cut Bazzill Admiral 8” x 6” and score and fold at 4” along the 8” side (set aside). Cut a 6” x 4” piece from WRMK Classic Crest. Ink the edges using a blending tool and Weathered Wood and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks. Now you need to distress the edges using a distressing tool or your fingernail, then stitch a frame around the edges (set aside). Trim the caravan/car from WRMK Graphic Tee to 1 ¼” x 4” & ink the edges with Fired Brick Distress Ink.
Make a ‘patch’ – trim out a pair of lions from WRMK Graphic Tee & attach it to a piece of WRMK 6x4 (I used the denim blue one) & zig zag around the edges of the lion piece then gently tear our your patch from the surrounding paper (set aside). Stamp ‘happy holidays’ from Darkroom Door All Occasions on the reverse of some White Bazzill in Black Archival Ink & add a hint of colour with Pumice Stone Distress Ink & a blending tool.
Assembly – Attach caravan strip to 6” x 4” piece, approx 1” from the bottom. Trim some ‘stitch’ sticker (WRMK Cardstock Stickers) over the top and bottom edge of the caravan strip. Attach your ‘happy holidays’ tag to the patch, add a Tim Holtz Paper Clip, and attach this combo to the top left of the 6” x 4” piece and then attach the whole 6” x 4” piece to your blue card base.
Card #2 “Carpe Diem”
Cut Bazzill Admiral 8” x 6” and score and fold at 4” along the 8” side (set aside). Cut a 5 15/16” x 3 15/16” piece from WRMK Distressed Jeans. Ink the edges using a blending tool and Chipped Sapphire Distress Inks, and gently distress the edges with your fingernail (set aside).
Cut a 2” x 6” strip from WRMK Distressed Jeans (green stripe side), ink the edges using a blending tool with Peeled Paint and Forest Moss Distress Ink, and gently distress the short edges with your fingernail (set aside). Cut a 2 1/8” x 6” strip from WRMK Argyle Sweater (red stripe side), ink the edges using a blending tool with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink, and gently distress the short edges with your fingernail. Attach the 2” x 6” on top of this strip.
Wrap some twine around the blue 5 15/16” x 3 15/16” layer (secure with double sided tape), then attach the smaller strip in the centre of this layer (over the twine) using 3D tape. Attach the ‘carpe diem’ sticker from WRMK Cardstock Stickers.
Card #3 “Dude You Rock”
Cut WRMK Argyle Sweater (red stripe side) 8” x 6” and score and fold at 4” along the 8” side, and add some Vintage Photo Distress Ink around the edges of the card front (set aside). Using the same paper, but the argyle side, cut a 5 7/8” x 7 7/8” piece and drag the edges over the Vintage Photo Distress Ink pad, and sew around the edges.
Using Black Archival Ink and Darkroom Door Alphabet Medley stamps, randomly stamp the word ‘dude’ and trim out the letters, dragging the edges along a Forest Moss Distress Ink pad. Attach to top left of argyle card, adding gold brads in between the letters. Cut a small piece of line paper from WRMK 6x4 and round the bottom corners to make it look like note paper, and lightly edge with Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink.
Stamp ‘you rock’ from WRMK You Rock Stamps in black archival ink on the note paper and attach to bottom right of argyle card. Use the two arrow stickers from WRMK Cardstock Stickers and lightly sand the top of them before attaching to the note paper on the argyle card. Lastly, trim out three surfboards from WRMK Graphic T and attach to bottom left of argyle layer, as well as the surfboard sticker from WRMK Cardstock Stickers, dot outlining the cardstock surfboard.
Card #4 “Basically...... you rock”
Cut Bazzill Raven 8” x 6” and score and fold at 4” along the 8” side (set aside). Cut 3 ½” x 5 ½” WRMK Argyle Sweater (red stripe side), and edge with Fired Brick Distress Ink. Cut Bazzill White to 3 ¼” x 5 ¼”, and, using the smooth side, doodle with a black artline pen or similar a frame around the edges.
Stamp the cassette from WRMK You Rock Stamps using Black Archival Ink once on WRMK Argyle Sweater (red stripe side) and trim out, once on Bazzill White and trim out, once on WRMK Argyle Sweater (argyle side) and trim out the centre part and the bottom part, and once on Bazzill White and trim out the very middle oval section. Layer your trimmed out pieces in the order you cut them, either with double sided tape, 3D tape, or a combination of both and attach this to the centre right of the Bazzill White doodled border piece.
Stamp the quote from WRMK You Rock Stamps on the centre left of the same Bazzill White piece, then attach the white piece to the red 3 ½” x 5 ½” piece, then attach that to your Bazzill Raven card base.
