I wanted to use my Stampin Up hostess set Out of the Box for the card.

The flourishes on the left hand side of the card are what was left over from the CELEBRATE card I made a few weeks ago.
At first the right hand side was plain and I didn't like it so I used a Versamark pad to add some flourishes and I liked it after that. I cut a small piece of cardstock to cover the area where I was going to stamp the sentiment so it would stand out better. I am not sure what set the "it's your day!" is from, but it didn't come with the Out of the Box set.
Love it!! I like the left and right flourishes, they play off each other and make the card pop!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card!!! Love the little cupcake, and the flourishes!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're so funny! I know what you mean about mailing the cards. I make cards to donate & then my family ends up not getting any. My friend who got me into stamping says, "Haven't you heard? The cobbler's children have no shoes!"
ReplyDeleteAnyway, another beautiful card!!! :) Is the stitching on the left hand side, by the flourishes, faux or did you use your machine?! Nice touch!
Love your work and I love your site! Sunday night Had me rolling- you changed my whole week. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteYou make me laugh. I make a lot of cards and never send them out, just like you. I'm getting quite the stash and need to start sending some out for just no reason soon. LOL
