MSS Sneak Peek Day 2: Riding By

 

HELLO!

Today is the second day of sneak peeks from Market Street Stamps!!

There are TWO sets being "sneaked" tonight- I'm sharing a card I made using the set RIDING BY! 
Make sure you check out the MSS blog to see the rest of the sneaks and check out the other set-NEIGHBORHOOD! It's super cute!

Here are the details of the release (all this can be found on the MSS blog, too!)
  • The February release stamps will be "sneaked" on the MSS blog Monday-Wednesday at 7PM Central Time!
  • The full sets will be revealed on Thursday night!
  • Stamps will be available for sale following the reveal Thursday night!
  • The February release stamps will be 15% off in the store for an entire week following the release!! Want all of the sets? If you order the whole release they'll be 25% off for an entire week!! Can't beat that!

So- here's what I came up with using the new Riding By set!


How retro cool is that! This is another fun set illustrated by Samantha Casey! I can't stop using it- it's one of my favorites!

I took the new zig-zag stamp (from the Riding By set) and stamped it repeatedly with Versamark ink. Then, I quickly threw some silver embossing powder on it before the ink dried! Ya really have to work fast (I know from experience... lol) or you could simply heat emboss a couple of zig zags at a time (probably a much smarter plan than the one I went with! LOL!)

After heat setting the silver zig zags, I die cut a little section out so the bike could peek through! When stamping the bike directly on the card, I had to remember to mask the right side of the card because I only wanted the bike image to show up inside the cut out section. Yup, that's another one I learned through trial and error! HAHA!

I am IN LOVE with that sentiment, by the way... there are quite a few people I can think of to send this card off to! 

Make sure you run over to the Market Street Stamps blog to check out all the other sneak peeks!
 And there are lots of ways to WIN these new sets so make sure you check it out!

See ya back here tomorrow with one more sneak!

    Aren't you clever, Stephanie?? I love the silver embossing on kraft, and the way you gave a peek a boo to the bicycle.

    Love the zig zags and how you used only part of the stamp to go along with the sentiment.
