Sometimes its fun to take a tradition card like this Queen for a Day card…….
and turn it into a humorous card like this:
Queen for a Day….at least my panty hose tells me so!
My husband Tim didn't get the humor so I guess its really a female thing. I think we all get it, whether it fits us or not!
There is a stamping video tutorial below if you like watching a card being made, and here are the written instructions along with supplies needed:
1. The base of card is Melon Mambo with the front run through the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.
2. Basic Black and Whisper White Card Stock are run through the Big Shot with different sizes of the Labels Collection Framelits.
3. The words "queen for a day" from the You Rule stamp set are stamped in black, and on a different piece of Whisper White, the crown from You Rule is stamped in Melon Mambo and cut out.
4. A bit of Basic Black Scallop Dots Ribbon is tucked behind the Basic Black piece.
5. The crown is decorated with Basic Rhinestone Jewels and Large Rhinestone Jewels and attached to the card.
6. The extra words are done on the computer and added to the card, either on the front like this picture, or on the inside of the card, which is where I usually place those added words.
If you like this idea, I encourage you to look for funny sayings that fit someone you want to send a card to and then figure out which stamp set will go along with it! The other day on my 44 Funny Valentines Sayings post, I made a list of ideas for Valentines card. Take this further and do your own for any occasion. You don't need to purchase a card when you want to include a funny saying!
