This card is for the challenge I'm hosting at VSN, it is a color challenge and is in keeping with the overall theme of the VSN âeoeRock Starâe
This card may seem like there is a lot to it but infact it is quite simple.
I made several backgrounds using various card stock by laying down colour onto alfoil then spraying it with ironing aid. For this card I used watercolour paper. I then used a stencil and the cream foil bond, stopped the timer and prepared dinner while it dried.
I pressed the foil onto the foil bond cutout the flowers once in some Gorgeous Grape that had been sprayed with the ironing aid and two times with elegant Eggplant then sandwiched them together for dimention.
I heat embossed the greeting and banner then cut it out and mounted it with SU Dimensionals, adding the silver cord before gluing it all down.
VSN is a challenge run three or four times a year and is held over two days Friday and Saturday USA ET or Saturday and Sunday EST Australia, with often a mini VSN a few weeks' earlier just so you can get into the swing of things. You have an hour to make each card with a challenge going up every hour.
I love to try and do my challenges live but sometimes life gets in the way and so everyone just must have their cards uploaded within a week of the challenge. It is an honour system that you only take an hour to make your card and that is part of the challenge, it is amazing how it hones your creativity.
Anyone can join in the fun and this VSN is from 6th and 7th July with final uploads on the 15th July. We have many of our SCS members provide inspiration for an amazing weekend.
