Hey there! As promised, I have the first of three May Online Class cards to share with you today. This month we're using  Marquee Messages stamps I received at  OnStage Live in Salt Lake City last month. Since you will receive 6 completed cards, with envelopes and instructions, when you order at least $35 in my online store this month, you can wait until June to order your set.

I combined Marquee Messages, Gorgeous Grunge, and the Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder:

I used the "tearing" technique, something that I did quite a bit back when I first started stamping 14 years ago. I'd forgotten how much I like the effect! After stamping the images with Archival Basic Black and stamping the Gorgeous Grunge "splotches" with Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, Pool Party, and Tip Top Taupe, I tore around the image. then rubbed Tip Top Taupe inkpad directly on the  edges for more "grunge".

After I adhered the grunged layer over the Tip Top Taupe/Brick Wall layer, I added a few black sequins from the Metallics Sequins pack, adhering with my Fine Tip Glue Pen.

Inside I used more Marquee Messages and the same inks and stamps from Gorgeous Grunge. I needed a matching liner for my envelope, so I stamped a piece of copy paper, cutting it with my Envelope Liner Framelits (which are on the Retiring List and won't be available much longer!)

You can't order Marquee Messages, Flirty Flamingo or Peekaboo Peach until June 1st, but you CAN order everything else for this card in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
