Texas State University cards

I have two cards to share today. These are college related, but could be adapted for any occasion. :)


The tan card has more of a masculine look. I stamped the Bobcats word on the background of the tan cardstock with Versamark ink, then sprayed the Bronze color over top. I highlighted the word Bobcats with black in the bottom right corner. The smaller Texas State University fits perfectly in the center of the Texas Outline (small) and I colored the image with markers, then covered with clear glitter. 


The card base and all the layers were inked along the edges with a black inkpad and a foam blending tool. A small piece of maroon cardstock and some brown brads adds to the masculine feel.

Supplies used for Tan card:
*Texana Designs Stamps: Texas Outline (Small), Texas State University, Bobcats
Tan & Maroon Cardstock
Georgia Pacific: White Cardstock
Tsukineko: Memento Inkpad (Tuxedo Black), Versamark Inkpad (Clear)

The white card has a background created with the Star (mini) stamp colored with markers. Then the gold mist was sprayed over the stamped base, which gives the card a fun, sparkly surprise.

 The main image was stamped with the large square first, then adding the Texas Outline and the Texas State University words inside that. The word Bobcats had enough room to fit in the bottom corner. I colored this layer with markers and used foam tape to add it to the card base. The card base and the maroon layer were both inked along the edges with a black inkpad and a foam blending tool.
