Congrats to Barbie, the newest Featured Stamper! Like Bridget, I had a hard time choosing, so I did two! For this one, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the same layout and use of a fancy die cut frame, but I turned it horizontally and added a little neon green to the colors.
I first die cut the lg bg out of white card stock. I used a piece of card board under the card stock when I die cut it & the negative pieces stuck to the card board. I placed a piece of sticker paper over this & managed to get all the negative pieces stuck to the sticker paper. The exposed area was still sticky so I coated it with black embossing powder & heat embossed it.
I stamped & black embossed the label border onto neon green card stock & die cut it.The greeting is part of the designer paper & was die cut as well. I also added a little Copic fluorescent green to the lettering. To finish, I added a black grosgrain bow tied w/ a narrow neon green ribbon.
Congrats again, Barbie! It's also on my blog: The Write Stuff

Absolutely stunning, Julie. I had to see which card of mine you chose - lol. I love your take so much more than mine with the wonderful die and vibrant colors. Thank you so much for taking time to honor me this week with your card. Happy Easter !

Now this card gets your attention. Must be the neon. Very cool.
