Super Boy

Welcome

This card was made for a pre-schooler earlier in the year - hopefully I can remember most of what I used on it...


I started with a 'mop up' piece of card, and from the sheen on it, I must have been using a mica based spray...


The embossing was all done with a glitter silver embossing powder, and stamps were from  STAMPlorations set called Super Hero


The image was stamped on a snippet of white cardstock, his clothes were coloured with markers, and his cape coloured with a silver Wink of Stella pen.  This was then fussy cut before adhering


The skyline stamp is in the set, and I stamped it twice, altering the height of the stamping to deceive the eye and make it look like just the one stamp right across the base of the panel.  Memento Tuxedo Black was used, multiple times, and then the 'windows' were coloured with a silver pen.


The two stars from the set were embossed on white and silver pen used between the two outlines, the centres painted with the silver WoS., and a wee silver 'confetti' star was added to the centres of the stamped stars, and also randomly around the card

The sentiment was a magazine freebie stamped and silver embossed on black card, then trimmed out before adhering.

What a fabulous freebie stamp!
This is a great card for a young man. At some time they all dream of being a super hero and yours is perfect flying over the towering buildings in the skyline.
Great background setting the images off perfectly.
