Thank You

Wow - I'm really proud of the card I'm showing today!!!  My friend Gisela sent me an email asking if I could make a Thank You card for her that depicted a stage/microphone/stool.  She recently went to a Seinfeld show and wanted to send her friend a thank you.  My first reaction was.......umm, no...I have nothing like that...but I thought about it a bit and then looked through my stash and found I had 'almost' everything I needed!

Here's the card:

So, here's what I did!  First I took my PTI wood floor stamp and stamped three rows.  Then I cut a circle out and used the cut-out as a template and sponged the circle with yellow.  Then I took my circle and put it over the yellow portion and sponged distress inks over the wood floor.  I sponged black as the backdrop.

I took the lamp from a PTI set and only inked up the stand. Stamped that in black and then used my versamark pen to make a microphone and embossed with silver powder. And there's my microphone!  I didn't have a stool or chair that we both liked - so I left that off the card.

For the curtains...I laid down three strips of tacky tap and then folded them to look like stage curtains.  I folded the top ribbon in 1/2 and folded it behind the panel.  Then, using some extra tacky tape, I stuck the stage panel on top of my card.

I used an Inkadinkado 'thank you'.   I sent a 'thank you' email to Gisela for challenging me with this card! I'm really happy with the result :)  What do you think?

Thanks for your visit!
