Hello Everyone,

Today I’m bringing you the card I shared over on Instagram for this month’s Crafty Challenge….

You can hop through all the projects from my post @stampinwithinkybutterfly

This sketch is so flexible… I’m keeping it nice and simple.

The rectangle was cut using the Everyday Details dies. I added Pretty in Pink and Petunia Pop ink with a Blending Brush and layered it on to black cardstock.

I used a scrap of Summer Splash cardstock to create a banner to go across the rectangle and wrapped some bakers twine.

The sentiment was stamped onto black cardstock and heat embossed in white.

The card base is made with Basic Beige cardstock with an embossed background.

This version uses Copper Clay, Wild Wheat and Boho Blue on a Very Vanilla card base.

Dimensional Topper using the Flowers of Beauty Dies

Hello Everyone,

Sometimes it’s the little extras in a stamp or die set that can become the feature element of a card!

The Flowers of Beauty dies not only coordinate with the stamp set, but has these cute tiny flowers too.

You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….

I used the Stylish Shapes dies to create frame around the sentiment.

Each little flower was shaped and added with some multi-purpose glue. Rhinestones were added for lots of sparkle!

Here’s an alternative layout using different colours for the flowers and iridescent pearl centres.

Love how this turned out! I think would look great as a wedding card!
