Do you believe it's 2019! I have taken some time off from stamping to enjoy the holidays with my family, but I am ready to get back in the swing of things, and what better way to start the New Year than with the Global Design Project challenge! Here is the sketch:
Now the card I made is for a very special person...my youngest daughter. She is officially a college senior! I've been wanting to make a card for her using the Strong & Beautiful stamp set ever since I won it at Onstage back in November. I teamed it up with the Butterfly Gala bundle, and here is the result:
I absolutely love the sentiments in this stamp set! It is great for Mother's Day, friendship, encouragement, so many possibilities.
The butterflies add dimension, and the Butterfly Duet Punch makes it so easy!
Tips and Tricks:
- Whisper White card base 8-1/2 x 5-1/2, scored at 4-1/4, Coastal Cabana layer 3-1/4 x 4-1/4, Wood Textures DSP layer 3 x 4
- The sentiment on the side and bottom is one stamp, I used the Basic Black Stampin' Write marker to ink up only the portion I wanted to stamp in that area.
- I die cut a piece of Whisper White and then embossed it with the Basket Weave embossing folder to add more texture. This also helped adhere the Coastal Cabana and Daffodil Delight accent die cuts.
- Be sure to use an Embossing Buddy when heat embossing to get crisp images and make sure there is no stray powder.
