The July stamp is a wonderful compass and this time I made a clean and simple card.


Materials used:

So Suzy Stamp of the Month
Sand and white cardstock
Versamark ink
White Embossing powder
Vellum
Varieus dies
Digital paper 
Sequins
Twine

First I stamped the compass stamp on vellum and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.
I used a circle die to cut out a circle,
The digital paper used to cut out two other circles is from Magical Studio on ETSY.


I also cut out a rectangular shape from white cardstock using a MFT dienamic.


I organized the circles and the sequins on the white panel and stamped a little bon voyage sentiment underneath. I do like the little shell sequins, I had them for years and now they came to good use. The twine matches the second circle.

I hope you like it and are inpired by this card.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.

Hugs, Henriette.



So Suzy Stamp of the Month July Release

It's the 10th of the month which means the reveal of the So Suzy stamp of the month July.

For the So Suzy Stamp of the Month Club, you'll get a stamp in the mail that is "coastal themed" (beach, nautical). The program includes a great mixture of sentiments and images. You can sign up for three months to try it out or sign up for the whole year - regardless of where you are in the world! At the end of the year, you''ll have a great collection of coordinating stamps.

This month all the subscribers will receive a great compass stamp which can be used in so many different ways.




When I was thinking about a way to use this compass I remembered a wonderful movie I did see a few times called "The Golden Compass". A great fantasy/action movie. I loved it. Too bad there wasn't another sequel.






This movie inspired me to make my card with a golden compass. I wanted to make a gold and blue themed card.



Supplies:

Copper cardstock for the cardbase
Blue and gold metallic cardstock
Digital paper from Silvercrystalscouk on Etsy
Versamark
Wow Golden embossingpowder
Distress ink
Star punch (Dutch store HEMA)



First I made the compass using versamark ink and Wow gold embossing powder and a round die to cut out the circle.


I used distress ink to give the paper more ancient look.


I cut out a circle from gold metallic paper and one from copper paper and place all layer on each other.


The background panel of the card is digital paper (I altered the colors abit in Photoshop).
Behind this piece I glued blue metallic cardstock.


I also used a scrap piece of gold metallic paper to punch out little golden stars. The sentiment I typed in Word and printed it on a piece of yellow cardstock and distressed the edges.



It's a very shiny card I hope you can see this on this little movie I made.





You can find much more examples with this great July stamp on the So Suzy Blog and on the two Facebook groups: So Suzy Stamps flaunt it FB group and So Suzy stamp of the month

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hugs, Henriette.
