I wanted to participate in the LNS Challenge, this week is heat embossing. I haven't use the new Sale-a-bration set Patterned Occasions much so I decided to go with that. Another challenge this week is the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge (TSSC248) on Technostamper, so I used that layout with different stamps and paper.
Here is a another look at my card for TSSC248 from Monday :
Now here is the card I made for the LNS Challenge 208 Heat embossing combined with the layout of TSSC248.
I love the idea of the clothes line and wanted to use the jeans for the heat embossing component. I think the Marina Mist card stock looks like jeans when embossed, there is the right color and texture. I basically copied my design from Monday. I used DSP from the Nursery suite that retired, it just went well with the jeans and color scheme. The sky, clouds, and grass are all like the original card, just slightly different colors. Here's a close up of the jeans on the clothes line.
I added a brad for the jean button, too cute! The greeting was stamped in Basic Gray and die cut with the Itty Bitty Banners Framelits. I used a little trick to stamp the greeting without stamping the jeans. Since I wanted to die cut the greeting, I did not want any jeans in the way. I used a piece of tape over the bottom of the jeans so after I stamped in the ink pad I remove the tape and just the greeting is inked. Here's a pic of my stamp.
Normally I would just use a marker to color in the greeting, but I do not have a Basic Gray marker so I needed to use my stamp pad. Works great!
I hope you enjoyed my card with a dual purpose! To participate in the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge go

Hmmm, I just came back to look through the entries again to see what my vote will be and my comment is not here?? I know I left one. Strange. Anyway, I love both of your cards. The The pinwheel one and the jeans. I love them hanging on the line like that. I made a card like that for my tutorial. So cute. Awesome job on the challenges.
Adorable cards, Nicole and great tip about using the tape! TFS
