You Are...Unique


 I had an Andy Warhol color blocking idea running through my head when I saw this rubber stamp from the Sparkle N Sprinkle set Art Deco Ladies.  I stamped the image four times with VersaMark and heat embossed each one with a different color embossing powder: Cerulean, Concord, Japanese Lacquer, and Copper.  I fussy cut each one and then created the embossed blocks behind each one using the same four SNS embossing powders.


The "You Are" (Express Edge) and "Unique" (Stagelights font) are new CHA release dies from Die-Versions.  I die cut the Express Edge on top of the card base and then die cut it a second time to adhere to the sides of the card.  These new Express Edge dies are so cool and fun to use, not to mention how versatile they are!  The letters forming the "Unique" are covered with SNS Reflection velvet glitter, but it didn't show up in the photo at all.  Notice the black strip between the panels?  It's 1/2" Tear-ific tape that I heat embossed with Black Detail embossing powder.  If you didn't know the SNS Tear-ific tape could withstand the heat from a heat gun, well it can!

Enjoy your day!

This is awesome Anne! You captured the pop art SO perfectly!!
(I tried a pop art piece with a simple SNS flower years back - it was very pretty, but it didn't have as much pop art feel as this one!)
Love it!
