Sunset Smooch...

It's SCS CAS challenge time again...this time we are going to be inspired by the beautiful state of Michigan. I got stopped at the pictures of the dazzling sunsets...

My card uses a technique called brayered sky...this is about as fancy as I get as far as techniques go. I tried stamping the kissing couple directly on the glossy paper, but you know how glossy paper is to stamp on...so I stamped them on gray paper and cut them out. (I guess that means this card also qualifies for the latest challenge in the A muse Lounge "Cut it Out").

My husband's cousin is getting married soon and I decided this could work as a wedding card for them.


I stamped the sentiment along the side of the main image and framed it in with the bracket. Some love in the form of a heart shaped twinkle sticker (coloured black with copics) from A muse finished it off.

Here is what I used:

Stamps: A muse
Paper: SU (glossy, basic black, going grey)
Ink: palette hybrid noir, SU (barely banana, summer sun, pumpkin pie, ruby red, really rust)
Accessories: SU die (originals hearts and brackets), brayer, pop dots, amuse twinkle sticker, copics

Thank you for visiting...hope you can play along in the challenges!
