…just a call to go wild and party and dance…

Sharing a card I made for a friend’s 40^th birthday featuring an image from the now closed Saturated Canary called 70’s Vibe.

The layout for my card comes from the sketch over at Try Stampin’ on Tuesday. To keep with my 70’s theme I went with a less typical shape to die cut the image, swapping the oval in the sketch for a curvy square.  I edged the die cut in gold glitter embossing powder and went to town with the gold glittery accents on the card as well.  Used a couple of different sparkle pens on her top to add a glittery 70’s feel to it also.

I wanted to play along at Incy Wincy Designs in their create your own background challenge but decided it might be a bit too lairy to do the whole card base in a 70’s inspired pattern.  So, instead, I just did up a piece for the rectangular element in the sketch.  I used Tim Holtz Distress Markers to colour through the mini version of his Rosette stencil.  I then spritzed it, with the stencil still in place, with some Resist Spray.  Finished off with a layer or Distress Ink for a lovely colourful pattern.

To finish off my card I added in a sentiment using an Altenew die cut, which I double cut and layered, and stamps from Mama Elephant and Birch Press Designs.  As I have a few die cuts on my card I am also entering it at The Paper Girls for their current challenge.

Love how this card turned out and think it captures the style of the 70s really well.  Just hope my fellow 70’s flowerchild friend likes it too.
