Today Joan gave us a challenge to make a card that looks like it is layered but it is not (TLC467); and Jen asked us to use Tags or Tabs - so I combined the two.
To achieve the funky striped panel, I ran some cardstock through a striped EF. I took that embossed panel and ran Versamark over it, and used the panel as a stamp. After rubbing the panel onto the blank card, I put clear embossing powder on, heated it, and then sponged some TH Distress Inks with painters tape above and below the embossed image. Then I added a thin teal stripe with a marker to make it look as if it is a striped panel layered on a teal panel. Last but not least I added my little banner saying "hi". I hope this all makes sense.
Thanks so much for taking a closer look - hope you like it

Barb, you really did achieve the look of multiple panels...but only had one. TFS sharing your technique for creating the lovely patterned on your horizontal band. A lovely CAS card.
