I literally gasped a little when I saw the sliding barn door stamp
set in the latest mini catalogue from Stampin' Up! I need some "thank
you" cards and opted for a retired set called "Petite Pairs" for
the sentiment behind the barn door. The sliding mechanism is simple. I
purchased these washers for under $2
from Amazon and used the Stampin' Up video as a
guide. The background is made with the 3D embossing folder called Pinewood
Planks, I sponged it a little with crumb cake to add a little dimension.
The first card I made, I just stamped the
barn door on Crumb Cake with black ink and mounted it. It looked really great
but had no dimension, so I stamped a second door and used my 2 Crumb Cake
Stampin' Blends to add shadows and dimension to the door. It worked really well
and looks a lot better now!
