As a (retired) city planner, this Hero Arts stamp (Silly Scape, K5425) is a particular favorite. I decided to challenge myself to make two cards – same stamps, same layout – one depicting the city by night, the other, the city by day. This is my night city, with lots of rich layers and shadows. I stamped the city several times on coordinating cardstock (7 Gypsies), cut out sections and layered (up to 5 layers) to create depth and shading. I love how well the font of this sentiment stamp (CL148) goes with the crazy building lines. Vintage buttons and Nestie frames were added to complete the card. Tomorrow I will post is the daytime version. Sleep tight.
