WOW Wednesday Are You Short on Time?

If I were a goat I'd want to be this one! :):

Okay you are wondering what that guy is all about, he is smiling.  We all need to smile because it is Wednesday and we have made.  This means two more days till the weekend and maybe a little stamping time. Hooray!!

Here is a WOW Wednesday and I will be focusing on sponging techniques. We all at some point in time need an extra special card,  but ask where is the time?  This card will do the trick and maybe put a smile on someone’s face.  So watch the video on how to mask and sponge.

Here is an example of masking technique.  Note I said in the video that I used the Oval Framelit, but I actually used Deco Labels.  The one nice thing about masking is you can use whatever shape you need.

Base: Its with masking Deco Labels according to size that fits on your card. You start my sponging on the Pear Pizzazz and then adding a some Daffodil Delight.  Your green shade will be heavier that the yellow shade. Next add an ever slight Blushing Bride.  I think of the pink shade has it appears in a sunset.  So you want every so little of it.

Focal Point: The birds in the nest from World of Dreams is stamped in black.  They appear to be sitting in the tree against the beautiful vibrant sky. A punched butterfly is fluttering by them. Use dimensionals to give it the appearance of flight.

Greeting: I chose to not put a greeting because I felt it would distract from the focus of the beautiful sunset and the birds.  By the way, I consider the greeting for outside the card and the sentiment for the inside of the card.  The sentiment has more emotions or feelings that are revealed inside the card.

Congratulation Season Is Upon US

Whether you know someone graduating, retiring, or maybe some other occasion, a card is a nice touch.  This card will bring a smile because it is all stars. With the exception of Gorgeous Grunge, the items in this card are leaving us. So let have one more opportunity to use them.  The star punches have been one of my favorite punches. It just adds an extra touch to the card.

Who Is Swinging on the Stars?

I thought between now and the 1st of June we would focus on the retired items.  You can click here to see the entire list:

I want you to think of what is the tool you are using for your project.  Please feel free to case my cards or make the same card.  So not every card I  make will be a composed of all retired products. For example, today’s post is only the greeting.  So enjoy the variety.
