It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Inspired by a Song".
This card is inspired by the stamp Deco Diamonds of the new release of Simon Says Stamp: Sending Sunshine. It immediately reminded me of Diamonds by Rihanna. First I used the Deco Diamonds stamp on Distress Heavystock and applied after using VersaMark some White Embossing Powder.
Then I started with 3 different colors of Infusions. I often use Infusions one color at a time, but this time I've applied Blackcurrant, Green Man and Slime all together. With a mister (my Ditress Sprayer is broken...boohoo) I mixed the colors and with a Heat Tool I let it all dry. I repeated this twice until I had reached the right color. In the background I've made some music references, like the Music to My Ears stamp and the numbers 1234, as in a quadruple.
I really liked the Paper Dolls when they were released, but I was to incorperate them in my projects, and now I can't seem to not use them in my projects, LOL! The Deco Diamonds have something retro, so a perfect match with this cute vintage boy.

Your card shines bright like a diamond, you've used the new stamp masterfully--the black makes the design pop and the warm intense colors peeking through--it's SO good!

That background is wonderful with the white embossing and all the dark shades of color. I love this card Sandra! Hugs!
This background is GORGEOUS! Wow, wow, wow! I love the diamonds and how you colored them. I always admire the way you think of interesting techniques and take the time to make videos to share those techniques with us.
Wow - the background is amazing - it's almost an optical illusion, making those diamonds dimensional. Love the effect of the rainbow Infusions within the white embossed stamping. Brilliant!
