Urban Underground DSP – LICI-E-10 of 11

Stamps: Geared Up Garage, Still Night (Holiday 2018).

Cardstock: Black, Pool Party, Smoky Slate, Very Vanilla, Silver Foil, Urban Underground DSP (Occasions 2017).

Ink: Basic Gray, Black, Light Smoky Slate Blends.

Tools: Tombow adhesive, snail adhesive, glue dots, dimensionals, Wink of Stella, baker’s twine.

Punches/Dies: Night Owl Thinlits dies, Stitched Shapes Framelits (largest), Stitched Banners dies (non SU!).

I used one of the half sheets (3x6) of black with brushed silver foil for this card.  I adhered a Silver Foil strip to one long edge before adhering it to my card front.

Colored the owl with the blends then used Wink of Stella to the dark areas only of the owl.

I had joined a Paper Share for the Occasions 2017 catalogue.  And as usual, SU! has the most stunning papers but the catalogue does not do them justice.  A Paper Share allows you to see the detail, patterns and weight of each DSP before committing to buying a full pack.  For the designs you love, you can always order a full pack if the catalogue is still current!  From the Urban Underground DSP Paper Share, I ended up with 5 sheets of 6x6 paper plus 2 half sheets (3x6) of black with brushed silver foil.  I have Loved It long enough, time to Chop It and use it thanks to Kylie Bertucci!
