Rockabilly Tart & Tangy ~ SC216 & TPE12



I combined the Color Challenge 216 at Splitcoaststampers using Real Red, Basic Black, Old Olive & Whisper White with The Pink Elephant sketch challenge for this card.



The cherry patterns from the Rockabilly Specialty Designer Paper is so fun to work with, especially with the Tart & Tangy stamp set. The cherries have been covered with crystal effects to give them a shine, dimension, and a smooth texture. I wanted to add a greeting to the card front, but I had a difficult time deciding where and how to place it, so I left it as is.



Stamps: Tart & Tangy
Paper: Old Olive, Whisper White CS, Old Olive Prints DSP, Rockabilly Specialty DSP
Ink: Old Olive & Real Red Stampin' Write Markers
Other: Crystal Effects, Eyelet Border, Scallop Circle & 1 3/8" Circle punches, Crafters Tool Kit, Dress Up Ribbon
