I used the Work of Art and Sassy Salutations stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create a quick thank you card to share today.  My card design was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #74.

I started by stamping the paint splash image from the Work of Art stamp  set (available June 2) in Smoky Slate ink on a Whisper White panel.  Then I took a sheet of scrap paper and tore it in half and I placed half of the sheet above the paint splash image and half below it to mask the area.

Then I stamped the chevron image from the Work of Art stamp set twice in Basic Gray ink over the paint splash image and mask.

I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the sentiment from the Sassy Salutations stamp set (wood mount and clear mount) in VersaMark Ink.  I sprinkled the sentiment with Melon Mambo Stampin’ Emboss Powder (retiring) and heat embossed it.  I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Melon Mambo card stock with SNAIL then to a Basic Gray card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I scattered some random Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Melon Mambo (from the Brights Candy Dots pack), Smoky Slate and Basic Gray (both from the Neutrals Candy Dots pack) Candy Dots over the stamped image to complete the card front.

I stamped the chevron image from the Work of Art stamp set again in Basic Gray ink on a Whisper White panel to complete the inside of the card.

Alright, I’m making this a quick post…my big box of Stampin’ Up! goodies from the new catalog is arriving today.  I’m so excited to see those new In Colors in person.  And the catalogs that I ordered for my customers should also be arriving, hopefully I’ll have them repacked and back in the mail to you either later today or first thing tomorrow!!  So be on the lookout for a Priority Mail Envelope in your mailbox very soon.  🙂
