Karen Burniston Sneak Peek Week Day 4 - Game Charms

 Hello and Welcome! Today's card features the new Game Charms die set. This awesome set comes with dies to create chess pieces, dice, small playing cards, poker chips and a pool cue and 8 ball! For my card today, I create a pool table card. 

For this card, I started with a 5x7 card base using a heavy weight black cardstock. 

I used the Rectangles and Labels - Crosshatch die set to create the edge around the pool table. 

I glued down a piece of green felt first. Then I added foam tape to the back of the pool table edge I created. I punched out black circles and cut them to create the pockets on the table. 

I didn't just want one pool ball, so I dug out my Mini Alphabet and Numbers die set to create different pool balls, including solids and stripes. I looked up the correct numbers and colors so it was accurate. I added some gloss lines on the balls using a size 10 white Gelly Pen. 

I die cut the pool cues, adding details with Copic markers. Then I die cut the "Happy Father's Day" sentiment from the Happy Fathers Day die using holographic cardstock.

For the inside of the card, I used the Little Labels Pop-Up die set. I added some green paper to continue with the pool table theme and added different pool balls again to each little label. 

I die cut the word "Dad" using the Alphabet die set and the same holographic paper. I stamped and die cut the sentiment "you're the best" using VersaMark Ink and white embossing powder on smooth black cardstock. 

I added a few more little stamped details and an area to sign the card. 

I can't wait to create another card using the Game Charms dies. My parents both play cards at our local Legion, so I think I playing card card is in order!
