Timeless

Hey everybody! Happy Hump Day – I hope you’re having a great week! I’ve popped in to share my final inspiration project for the Splitcoast Stampers Dirty Dozen DT! I had such a great six-month run with them and I can’t believe how fast it went by! This birthday card features another older rubber stamp in my stash – the Paper Mania Beautiful Time Pieces stamp. I sure do love a black and gold color combo!

I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from CutCardStock Basis Black along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Curious Metallic Gold Leaf which I ran through the Big Shot with a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. I framed the focal image (stamped with the Paper Mania Beautiful Time Pieces rubber stamp) with die cuts using the STAMPlorations Pierced Curly Frames/Tags Nesting Dies cut from the black and gold cardstock.

I colored the frame around the center watch face with a Pentel Slicci Gold Pen and adhered a round piece of acetate to the front of it to mimic a real gold watch. I die cut the letters for the ‘timeless’ sentiment from Curious Metallic Gold Leaf cardstock using the Sizzix Alphanumeric Tiny Type Lower Thinlits and adhered them to a Basis Black cardstock strip.

I cut the inside panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the Basis Black and Curious Metallic Gold Leaf. I stamped the sentiment from the Gina K Designs Birthday Greetings stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
