Well, I didn't have enough time to make a card for the 2nd challenge in the MFT Creative Olympics (Freestyle Challenge); so I'm jumping straight to challenge 3:
The challenge is to choose one technique and one card type to combine on a card. I went with Emboss Resist and Shaker for my entry.
I stamped a bunch of the images from the Lucky Dog and You Make My Tail Wag stamp sets on a white card base with VersaMark ink and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder. Then I inked up my panel with Distress Inks before die cutting it with the Birthday Centerpieces die.
I used my inked panel for the front of my shaker and filled it with confetti and sequins in coordinating colors to match my inks. I used a white panel behind the colored panel to help the white embossed images pop a bit more.
I adhered the shaker panel onto a card base made from Lush Lagoon cardstock and stamped the inside with a sentiment and image from the Lucky Dog set.
That's it for my Crafty Biathlon! If I have time tomorrow, I'll backtrack to the Freestyle Challenge. {Unfortunately, I'm having dental work done and have to be sedated so I don't freak out. So crafting might be out of the question tomorrow afternoon. Or maybe I'll come up with a really entertaining card entry while under the influence of sedatives! LOL}
