Good morning, Eek I am late posting today as well, but I am happy to report that hubby is feeling a little better and will hopefully return to work by Friday.
So it's Wednesday and that means a great challenge at Stampin' Royalty. This week we have a recipe challenge to use Fabric in your project. Be sure to check out the Design Teams' amazing samples and I am so jealous of those of you that have crazy sewing skills- sigh I will one day learn:) I am also going to play along with Paper Players again this week as I created this card for a friend to show my appreciation and love for her:)
So again lots of goodies from the Occasions Mini. The base of the card is Riding Hood Red and the bottom was embossed using the Textured Impressions Adorning Accents Folder. I opted to die cut my fabric with the Beautiful Butterflies Die. Before I cut the fabric I attached it to some card stock using the Sizzix Big Shot Multi Purpose Adhesive Sheets. These sheets are perfect to use if you want to make sure some is adhered edge to edge. Once I cut of the butterfly I then used the smallest heart from the new Hearts Collection Framlits and cut out a portion of one of the wings. I then created a hanging heart in the center using the Small Heart Punch and Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine and popped it on to a Blushing Bride butterfly using Dimensionals.
I am just in love with the new Framelits! I used the Labels Collection on this card to make the perfect back drop for the butterfly. I first cut out one size in Lucky Limeaide then I turn the die over (cut side up, not down) on the cut out label, lined it up and ran it back through to create an embossed edge. Then I cut out
the next size down in Whisper White and embossed it with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder. The stamped banner is from Take It to Heart (which also has images that match the Hearts Framelits) and the sentiment is from Loving Thoughts.
Supplies used:
Stamps: Loving Thoughts, Take It to Heart
Ink: Ridinghood Red, Baja Breeze Marker, Basic Black
Paper: Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze, Lucky Limeaide, Whisper White, Textured Blushing Bride
Accessories: Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder, Textured Impressions Adorning Accents Folder, Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder, Hearts and Labels Collection Framlits, Sizzix Big Shot Multi Purpose Adhesive Sheets, Beautiful Butterflies Die, Twiterpated Designer Fabric, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Dimensionals
Hope you can play along with us this week and have a great day!
