A big congrats to Nancy! What a big, fab gallery she has! After much browsing, I chose her Inspired to Create to case. I kept the layout but turned it upright, used different images and different colors.
I started by stamping the sentiment once w/ the pink ink then overstamping w/ the black ink. I didn't try to get it exact..just eyeballed it. I like the light pink shadow it gives. After die cutting w/ a circle die, I backed it w/ a black die cut circle and a larger one with the crocheted background stamped in the pink ink. For the final layer, I stamped the crocheted circle the same way I did the sentiment, then die cut using the matching crocheted circle die.On the side panel, I again stamped the crocheted bg in pink then trimmed the right edge w/ scissors. For the crocheted border, I did the same as the sentiment and die cut it w/ the matching border die. I added a bow made w/ two ribbons and a mini bowdabra, some black gems and then used the black enamel accents down the border and around the circle. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.
The images are from Our Daily Bread designs. It's on my blog: The Write Stuff
Congrats again, Nancy, enjoy your week! Thanks so much for looking!
