Good Afternoon Everyone
Today I'm taking part in the Crafty Collaborations Share it Sunday Blog Hop. There's no set theme for this hop, just an opportunity to Share some projects we have been making.
I wanted to share a card I made using the Cling Film / Plastic Wrap Technique. It has been around for 'Forever' but I've never actually tried it. So ridiculously easy and a great way to add texture to your card without adding layers.
To show off my background to it's fullest I kept the decoration simple using the Sending Dies.
This card would be perfect to send to someone who doesn't like overly fussy cards - you know, they prefer something simple - you could easily use different colours to match their favourites.

-----------------------------------------
Take the Basic Black Card Stock and fold along the score line to create your card base. Add one of the Basic White pieces to the inside.
Scrunch up three pieces of cling film / plastic wrap into loose balls. Take a ball and tap it straight onto your ink pad, then 'stamp' on your remaining piece of Basic White. Use all one 'Ball' per colour and just repeat this until you are happy with how your pattern looks. I added quite a bit of ink to get a lot of depth. I used Azure Afternoon, Blueberry Bushell and Pool Party. Leave this panel to dry fully, then add to the card front.
Bring in your Mini Stampin Cut & Emboss machine and using the Sending Dies cut the word sending in Basic White along with the banner die. Cut the Sending word background in Basic Black.
Layer the sending words together and stamp the sentiment onto the banner.
Add both of these to the centre of the card front. Pop a rhinestone above the 'i' and one either side of the Birthday Wishes sentiment.
I hope you have enjoyed my card today - I loved making it! Please take a look through the list below and check out what projects everyone else is sharing - there's sure to be lots of inspiration for you
