Event #3 for MFT's Creative Olympics is Crafty Biathlon. We had to choose from 2 columns, one side was the technique & the other was the type of card. I chose Embossed Resist & Shaker Card.
For this card I chose to heat emboss some watercolour paper with the Marble Background stamp, then ink blend some Distress Oxide Inks over it in Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Peacock Feathers & Twisted Citron. After I sponged the colours on, I used a dry paper towel to rub over the surface to take off any ink that was sitting on top of the embossing & make it white again.
I then cut the panel down using a stitched rectangle from MFT & used the LOVE YOU die to cut out the front. I glued some transparency on the back, then pieced the middles from the O's back in & put foam tape all over the back. I filled the shaker part with seed beads & some heart sequins, then backed it with some shiny pink card stock & glued it all onto my card base.
I stamped out some pigs from the Hog Heaven stamp set, coloured them with copic markers & cut them out using the matching die namics. I stuck the flying pig on with some foam tape to make him look like he was actually flying & glued the other one holding the heart straight onto my card front.
Here is a photo of what I used to create this card:
