Nothing’s too gnarly


Sharing a card I made for my nephew featuring a fun stamp called Skater by the now closed Saturated Canary.


The layout follows the current sketch at AAA Cards, which I flipped on its side.  For the rectangular elements I used washi tape so I could also play along at Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge.  Luckily, I had a roll of washi with ‘Happy birthday’ printed on it so that took care of my sentiment as well.  I teamed it with two different patterned tapes to echo graphics on skateboards and tie in with my image.

Over at The Crafter’s CafĂ© they want you to layer it up or keep it CAS with some yellow.  I’ve a splash of yellow and am CAS but I’ve actually played the layer it up half of the challenge.  I love adding layers of cardstock to my cards for weight and interest.  On this card I have four plus the card base and then the layer of washi and finally the stamp fussy cut and layered on top.
