Today I wanted to show you a card I made with the Fall Aster digi from Fred She Said. This blue is just so vibrant - I love it.
This is a tent topper card. I haven't made one of those before. Imagine that!!! There is a tutorial here on SCS for this style card-but I kinda did my own thing as my card measures 5-1/4 by 5-3/4. I just went with what I liked as I was putting it together.
The 3 punched border rows are done with an EK Success border punch. The die cuts are spell binders and there are a bunch of them. I used the large scallop and round nesties and the other lacy one is from the Doily Motif. I layer the image as well three times and distress inked around the edges with Antique Linen.
The pearls I got at a convention I went to not to long ago put on by Creative Keepsakes. I had a blast there-it was my first convention. The butterflies are a Martha Stewart Punch. The little leaf stick pins are from Mark's Finest Papers-they're so cute!!!
So I hope to have a craft filled weekend. I got the projects in my head I want to get done. Hope you have a great weekend as well. See You Soon!
