Happy Monday, everybody! I hope you had a groovy weekend! I have a really fun Splitcoast Stampers Dirty Dozen DT inspiration project to share today featuring a groovin’ granny (that would be me) gettin’ down to some disco music! Brings back loads of memories from the 70s! Bahahaha! This is another one of those stamp sets I’ve had in my stash for ages and it’s never been used so I thought it was time to bring it out and ink it up! I created this fun card with a tag in bright orange with a splash of hot pink which was very 70s disco!
I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with bright orange and hot pink layering panels from DCWV Double-Sided Cardstock and an orange dotted pattern from Colorbok Seeing Dots cardstock. Using the STAMPlorations Stitched Tags Nesting Dies, I cut the main tag from 80# Solar White and an outline panel from the bright orange. I threaded a short piece of Really Reasonable Ribbon pink checkerboard satin ribbon through the hole at the top which I adhered on the back and then added a tiny bow fashioned from Doodlebug Design Lily White Doodle Twine.
I stamped the image from the Sparkle N Sprinkle Disco Fever stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on 80# Solar White cardstock and colored her with alcohol markers. I fussy cut her and adhered her to the tag. I used a Pentel Slicci Gold Pen to add details over the bright orange background and then added several hot pink punched swirls made with my McGill Petite Petals Punch. I stamped the sentiment on a scrap piece of Solar White cardstock, colored the letters with an alcohol marker and added details with the gold pen.
I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with strips of orange polka dot and hot pink cardstock used on the front. I stamped the sentiment in black ink, colored the letters with an alcohol marker and added details with the gold pen.
