DL .....



This Clean and Simple card was made for a challenge on UK Stampers Forum ,,,, the Challenge requires you to make a DL greetings card ....

DL stands for 'Dimension Lengthwise' and is actually 99mm x 210mm, so to make a DL card you need to cut cardstock to 198mm x 210 and fold in half lengthwise..... or use a ready made made card blank !

I made my base from 300gsm white cardstock...... I then cut another matt from white card 5mm smaller .

Onto this I stamped the stitched balloons (Paperbag Studios) in black Versafine ink and heat embossed this with clear embossing powder (this enhances the blackness of the ink)

I then used Worn Lipstick Distress ink as a wash with a waterbrush to colour the top text balloon and the embossing resists the wash.

The word was die-cut from black card and matted onto dark pink card and applied as shown. The matt was then applied to the card to finish .......
