Saturday’s Inspiration Challenge #124

Published by rainy at 1:59 am under Cards, Just Talkin', SCS Challenges

Yay! Finally got in some stamping time! The inspiration pieces on Splitcoaststampers today are some lovely Freshcut fabrics.

As soon as I saw the quilt I immediately thought of my new “Sweet Baby Jane” dp’s from Daisy D’s. So I used them to make my challenge card.

I love these delicate patterns. The background, the panel and the butterfly are 3 different ones. I used my scalloped oval Nestabilities for a nice large oval for that big flower stamp from SU!’s “Live Your Dream” set. The flowers, once stamped, were outlined with a marker. Also used my SU! corner punch and crop-a-dile to set an eyelet for the corner treatment. Some nice wide grosgrain ribbon, piercing and a sentiment and you have it. Oh yes and don’t forget the stickles to add a little pop to the center of the flowers.

Stamps: Live Your Dream
Papers: Certainly Celery, WW, Daisy D’s DP
Inks: Old Olive, Pixie Pink, Pink Passion
Accessories: Nestabilities, Corner Punch, Paper Piercer, Crop-a-Dile, GG Ribbon, Eyelet, Stickles, Dimensionals
