Epic Celebrations meets Gorgeous Grunge

Wasn't sure what to do again, as this is for a teenage boy, so I looked at my stamp sets, old and new and thought this was the only one I've got that's age appropriate. so what I'll do next year I don't know? Football again probably!!!

To recreate this card follow the guide below:
® = retired, (sab) = Sale-A-Bration, (h) = Hostess, (nsu) = not stampin’ up, (ss) = Stamp set, (dsp) = designer series paper, (cs) = Card Stock

Start with a base card of Real Red (cs) measuring 21cm x 14.5cm scored at 10.5 cm.
There are two mats, the first mat is Basic Black measuring 10. cm x 14 cm and adhered straight to the base card with liquid glue.
The second mat is Whisper White (cs) measuring 9.5 cm x 13.5 cm, this is stamped using the Gorgeous Grunge (ss) and then embossed using the Subtle folder. This is also adhered to card using liquid glue.
Using a scrap piece of Whisper White (cs) and the Epic Celebrations (ss) stamp the sentiment using VersaMark and heat emboss using Silver embossing powder. Punch out the sentiment using the Tailored Tag punch, then with Real Red (cs) stamp the edge of the "To A Classy kind of guy" stamp from the Truly Tailored (ss) in Basic Black ink and punch out using the Tailored Tag punch.
Now on another piece of Whisper White (cs) stamp the Headphones, guitar and sneakers from the Epic Celebrations (ss) using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Colour them all using Stamping' Blends (black, real red and smoky slate).
Once coloured in add some VersaMark along the edges of the sneakers, around the rim of the headphones and along the one bar of the guitar and heat emboss using Silver embossing powder. Now fussy cut them ready to go on the card.
Cut the red Tailored tag in half down the long edge and adhere to the sentiment using liquid glue. Position the elements where you want them and adhere down using dimensional pads.
For the wire use black Bakers Twine adhered down using  a small amount of liquid glue.


Will be back again soon with more cards!!
