"Remembering"

Finished card size: 5" x 6.25"

The card was based on Regena's April 2012 Trail Map:

May 2012 Trail Map

This was a perfect sketch to use my Ladies stamps.

SUPPLIES:
Stamps:
Hot chicks (Hampton Art)
Paper:
Three background strips ( Encaustic wax stash)
Black card stock
Light pink card stock
Green card stock
Ink:
Memento Tuxedo black ink pad (Tsukineko)
Other:
Ribbon bow punch (Martha Steward)
Transparent sheet
Pink Marvy Marker (Uchida)
Embossing folder, Cuttlebug (Provo Craft)

Directions:

1. Because encaustic wax doesn't take kindly to stamps, I stamped on a transparent sheet and ran it through a zyron machine.
   
   
2. I cut the three rectangle strips from my stash of encaustic backgrounds, attached the ladies and bordered with green cardstock.
   
   
3. Punch four bow ribbons and shade with the pink marvy marker.
   
   
4. Run the pink cardstock through the Cuttlebug, cut the two green strips and compute the saying with "Baroque" font. Now assemble all parts on a basic black card.
