Magical!

Here's my third my third card for the  Lost Coast Designs Portal to Creativity August Children's Challenge! I used the Manga Goth Harlequin Stamp to create my card. I just love the edginess of these Manga Goth Girls! There are seven different 5" tall Manga Goth Girl stamps available PLUS there is a small set with six 3.5" tall versions!

Instructions:

1. Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the Manga Goth Harlequin Stamp twice — once onto white cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper. 
2. Fussy-cut the sticker paper version and set aside.
3. Use Copic markers to color the Manga Goth Harlequin Stamp.
4. Use the reserved fussy-cut mask and place it over its counterpart on the image panel.
5. Place low-tack tape horizontally across the bottom of the image panel.
6. Brush Pebble (grey) ink across the masked image and the tape to create a grey background. 
7. Use low-tack tape and magnets to secure the Rotating Rings stencil over the inked image panel on the STAY-tion. 
8. Brush or sponge Pebble ink over the stencil, the masked image, and the horizontal tape to create a tone on tone effect.
9. Remove the Rotating Rings stencil, keeping the image panel on the STAY-tion.
10. Place the Cabbage Rose stencil onto the image panel so that one of the stencil's roses would be in the smallest ring and the rose's leaves and stem would trail off the right side of the image panel. 
11. Place low-tack tape over the other roses. 
12. Brush or sponge Skylight (teal) ink over the stencil and masked image to color the rose, leaves, and stem.
13. Use a rough stippling brush (formerly known as a pouncy tool) was used to randomly pounce Skylight (teal) ink across the masked image onto the top part of the image panel.
14. Remove the strip of low-tack tape from the bottom orizon line
15. Brush or sponge Pebble ink  over the tape to create a floor to ground the image.
16. Remove the mask from the Manga Goth Harlequin Girl.
17. Brush or sponge Skylight (teal) ink onto a small piece of white cardstock.
18. Use the "Magical" word die  to cut the inked cardstock.
19. Adhere the die-cut to the image panel as shown. 
20. Trim the  image panel to 4.75" x 6.75".
21. Edge the image panel with the Skylight (teal) ink.
22. Create a 5" x 7" card from white cardstock. 
23. Smoosh Skylight (teal) ink onto the outside .5" periphery of the card to create a perfectly matching card.
24. Adhere the image panel to the the now-teal card to finish the project.

I sure hope you take the time to create a project for our  August Children's Challenge for a chance to win Lost Coast Cash!
