4/02 Footloose Telescope Card


Love telescoping cards, they give you so much more to work with!

Stamp sets: Footloose WTG stamp set,Under the Sea,Kick Back & 4 My Friend or Just a Number
Inks: Creme Brulee, Sunset, Sorbet, New England Ivy, Lagoon, Desert Sand & Black
Paper: Footloose WTG, New England Ivy cs, Creme Brulee cs, Bamboo & White Daisy cs

Techniques used: Spirelli, paper piecing, pressure embossing, rocking and rolling & applying ink with sponge dauber to stamp.









Turtle is stamped in N.E.I. ink on footloose paper(the sand and on the lg pattern), cut out the shell from the lg pattern and glue onto turtle stamped on "sand" paper.





Sea star is stamped on footloose yellow paper in desert sand ink, sponged with sunset and dotted with glitter gel. Sand dollars were punched out with a 5/8" and I used a stylus to empress the "star" lines for texture. The sea shell in inked in creme brulee partially rolled in sunset ink and lagoon ink.








Seahorse is stamped in creme brulee and then using sponge daubers ink on sorbet,lagoon and N.E.I., then roll very edge in N.E.I..
