It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "We Can See Clearly".
Not really a Father's Day card, but I made this one for that reason anyway. My father doesn't like dark colors, so I kept the card light. A while back I made a card with an acetate overlay and I really liked the effect, and it fits perfectly with this challenge. I started with the background and I used Distress Oxide Pumice Stone, Speckled Egg, Evergreen Bough and Ground Espresso to build up the colors. With Archival Ink Ground Espresso I stamped all over the card with the Ledger Script stamp.
The dark text of the Script Ledger stamp was a bit too dark and I mixed Texture Paste with Distress Paint Speckled Egg and used it with the Crate stencil. While the Texture Paste was drying I started with the acetate. I finally used my Specimen Stamp Set for that. I've had it for a while now, but couldn't find the right project for it. I reinked my stamp pad before stamping. That helps that you only have to stamp once and the stamp doesn't stick to the acetate. On the back of the acetate I colored the bug with Distress Paint Speckled Egg.
