I had planned to post this yesterday but between my sciatica, not being able to sit for long periods and losing my mojo over the discomfort, I had a hard time with the design. I was finally able to finish it today and I'm delighted with the way it turned out! I hope my friend likes it, too. ;)
The featured stamp set Let the Good Times Roll and coordinating dies are both on sale for a limited time so be sure to check those out! I started by using the Star Stencil, blending brushes and Pucker Up, Catching Rays, Aquatini and Serenade to ink blend the background. I left the stencil in place and used a palette knife to apply Moonstone Glimmer Paste. Then I set that aside to dry.
Using another panel, I stamped the sentiment from Let the Good Times Roll, used mint tape to mask off the stamped area and ink blended the same colours - Pucker Up, Catching Rays, Aquatini and Serenade - above and below the sentiment.
I stamped the roller-skates, again with Midnight ink, then heat embossed it with WOW! Black Twinkle embossing powder. I quickly used a brush and Pucker Up, Catching Rays, Aquatini and Serenade inks to 'watercolour' the skates. As a special touch, I added two white silk bows to the roller-skates. To finish, I trimmed the sentiment panel, popped it up with foam tape and attached the roller-skates to the card.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Wow! This really does almost bring flashbacks from roller rink birthday parties to mind! Fun card! (I can't rollerskate, so the parties, not so much. :D)
