The idea of placing the "hi" in the Build-A-Brad came from Sherri Barron's awesome card found HERE. To make my Build-A-Brad black, I simply colored it with a black Sharpie permanent marker. I ran out of black brads and used the same trick on silver brads! This card measures 4 1/4" x 4 1/4".

Stamps: Say It With Scallops
Paper: Bella Rose DP, Whisper White and Basic Black CS
Ink: Kiwi Kiss
Embellishments: Build-A-Brad, Brads, Kiwi Kiss 5/8" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon
Tools: Scallop Square Punch, 1/2" Circle Punch
Supplies: Black Sharpie Marker (non-SU), Stampin' Dimensionals

ReplyDeleteI knew how to change the color of a brad with embossing powder, but I never thought to do it with a Sharpie! Very clever!
