This one took me about 2 hours! I used patterned paper by Magenta and the colored cardstock came from my local stamp store. The yellow cardstock inside is just plain but the darker green cardstock has a shimmer to it. I cut the ovals out using my Creative Memories templates and cutters. They are the best! I stamped the sentiment on the yellow piece with VersaColor black and then embossed it with Stampendous Vertigre Opaque Embossing Powder. (The stamp is also from Stampendous). VersaColors gives it a more crisp image. I punched out a yellow piece with my Ek Success Whale of a punch 1 1/4" circle. I put VersaMark over the entire piece and embossed it with the same embossing powder. Then I punched a flower in plain green cardstock using my Marvy Uchida Flower Punch. I then punched the flower out with my 1 1/8" circle punch. You can see the embossing through the flower petals. I then attached a bronze brad in the center. Then I punched out another yellow circle the same size and did the same thing so that my dangly piece would be two-sided. In the middle is sandwiched some clear thread from my daughter's sewing kit! What do you think?
