Back to Stampin'

AWOL blogger reporting back for active duty! Sorry for the long delay. There is just too much to do in life, and I have trouble making stamping a priority unless it's something I HAVE to do! Luckily, I had a swap due last week, & club on Thursday evening, so you'll see a few posts appearing in the next few days!

First up is this card made using the new Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder for the Big Shot. Card base is Rich Razzleberry, next layer is Whisper White. Main layer is a sheet of dotted Cottage Wall DSP that I ran through the Big Shot with the Folder. Then I sanded off the top of the raised image using a Sanding Block to reveal the white core of the paper. Really fun! The butterfly is punched from a different sheet of Cottage Wall DSP. I added a half pearl from the Pretties kit to jazz him up. I also scored the butterfly in the center and folded lightly. Curl his wings lightly around a pencil or marker to give it some dimension! The ribbon is the Rich Razzleberry polka-dot grosgrain. Thank You is from the Oval All, stamped in Rich Razzleberry on two different prints of Cottage Wall DSP. The white layer is punched with the Large Oval, the Orchid layer punched with the Scallop Oval. The dots on the butterfly & scallop were colored in with the Rich Razzleberry marker. Use a dimensional on the top & bottom of the oval to adhere your oval. Quick & easy card!

Thanks for stopping by-see you here again SOON!!
