My second post today. If you missed the first one, just scroll down or follow a direct link here. I've announced a winner of my birthday giveaway.
I made this card for my friend who's birthday is next month. She is a Physics teacher and a great Physicist. :o)
I wanted to make her something Physics themed and stamps from a super fun Your Next Stamp 'Perfect Chemistry' stamp set were just right. I used a funny professor, who likes just like famous Physicist Albert Einstein, and went with Physic's theme: White Light Refraction.
Going through glass prism, white light refracts. A beam of white light splits into its component wavelengths, those that form the rainbow.
If you want to find a bit more about refraction and rainbow, just follow these links:

I stamped the professor on a watercolor paper and colored him with Distress Inks in a watercolor technique. After drying, I fussy cut him, traced edges with black marker and softened him with a stylus ball on a soft working mat.
Then I stamped a sentiment on a white cardstock paper panel and the professor one more time. I colored the professor with a black marker and glued the panel on a white top folded card base.
Lastly, I glued the colored professor on the card over the black one and my card was finished. :o)
