First Look: Flashy Letters

**There's still time to play along in our latest Sketch Challenge!**

Today's First look is Flashy Letters. I think this set is so appropriate for this month's urban theme. (Three out of four makes it a theme, yes?)

  • Flashy Letters will be available for purchase on April 15th.
  • Flashy Letters comes in a 4x6 clear acetate sheet and will retail for $15.00.
  • Flashy Letters contains a total of 36 stamps. Approximate measurements: 3/4” in height.

In my first card I show you how fun the letters are paired up with the skyline from Central Park.  For drama and flair, I embossed the letters in gold on black cardstock. I stamped the skyline with Black Versafine ink. I find that Versafine ink works particularly well with stamp images that have a lot of solid surface.

And because I still had my Distress Inks out from yesterday's projects, I braved up and blended a few colors together to create the sunset sky. Have you ever seen a pink sky against the silhouette of the city? It is a sight beyond surreal! Since I'm especially nitpicky, I went back in with a white gel pen and recolored in the windows white. 

For this next card I went a basic route. I stamped out this sweet quote with Flashy Letters, inking the word "LOVE" in pink. The tiny hearts are from Midnight Letters

Such a soft and pretty card, I'd give this to anyone as it's a great daily reminder to "do small things with great love." Indeed!
