Today I'm sharing the last two cards I created around the ticket embellishments I shared in this post.
This is such a fun style to create with all the stamping and layering. There's really not a right and wrong way to do it, I just picked stamps/embellishments in a general theme and color scheme.
Here are the layers I used on this first card:
- I inked up Stripes (Stampabilities) with Fired Brick Distress Paint (Ranger) and stamped it on a piece of Kraft card stock
- Next, I embossed my card stock with the Gears embossing folder (The Paper Studio)
- I Inked all the edges with sponge daubers in Walnut Stain Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- I stamped a corner stamp from The Journey (Tim Holtz) and numbers from Special Delivery (Tim Holtz) in Tuxedo Black Ink (Tsukineko)
- The truck and arrows are from The Journey (Tim Holtz), the tire tracks and route 66 sign are from Here and There (Tim Holtz)
- they are stamped in Faded Jeans, Fired Brick, Frayed Burlap, Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- the truck is popped up with mounting tape
- I added some burlap string to the left side and layered my ticket and some gears over top
For the layers on the last card are:
- cream card stock inked along the edges with Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- the edges are aged by distressing them
- a ship and sentiment from Here and There (Tim Holtz) stamped in Tuxedo Black Ink (Tsukineko)
- a map from Air Travel (Tim Holtz) stamped in Faded Jeans Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- the sentiment in the bottom corner is stamped there times in Wild Honey, Peeled Paint, and Walnut Stain Distress Oxide (Ranger)
- the ticket has a piece of black burlap string and it's popped up with mounting tape
