This next preview is a set called “Hand in Hand” designed by Melanie Muenchinger. This set has images for many occasions – and the concept is really unique!
Remember that tomorrow the release party starts at 7:00 PM CST in the Gina K. Designs forums on Splitcoaststampers. There is also one more set being previewed tomorrow so don’t forget to stop by again in the morning.
The lovely hand image was stamped with black ink onto Pure Luxery cardstock and colored with Copic Markers. I used E71, E77, & E49 for the suit, E50, E53, G000, & G00 for the sleeve, and E00, E11, & E31 for the guys hand. The gals hand was colored with E00 & E11, and then I added the sheer sleeve with a black marker and colored it with G000 & 0. To add a bit of dimension, I colored around the hands with W-1 and bleneded it with the colorless blender.
I cut out the hand image with an oval nestabilities die and mounted it on another oval with dimensionals. I ran the cardbase through the cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder and then ran it through again to smoosh it flat. The result was little rings on the back side of the paper, so I used that as my background on the front of the card.
I adhered the main image to the cardfront, added a bit of Pure Luxury ribbon, stamped the sentiment (also from the set), and added a little bling to finish the card.
