Marquee Messages

As promised, here is the second of my May Card Club samples, using the soon-to-be available Marquee Messages.  I've had fun using this new stamp set, and decided to let the attendees in on the excitement.

Due to the large size of the main stamp, there is very little needed on the front of the card.  However, there WAS a lot of white space.  So we filled that by first embossing some lines around the edge of the card, using the Simply Scored Board.  Then the fun began!

We stamped the main image with Night of Navy ink.  Then everyone got to choose which colors they wanted to use for the arrow and the strip on the bottom--they also got to pick "YOU ARE Awesome" or "IT'S YOUR Birthday", depending on whether they needed a graduation or birthday card.  I chose a graduation card, using Cucumber Crush and Melon Mambo, and colored in my letters using a Blender Pen and Night of Navy ink.

I'm only sorry I didn't line up all the cards and take a picture--everyone's was different and wonderful!

This fun set will be available on June 1st, along with lots more new goodies--stamps, new ink colors and a fabulous selection of new Designer Series Papers.  Can't wait!
