Congrats to our Featured Stamper, Monika! It was hard to narrow it down to one, but I finally picked her Happy I Do Day . I kept the general layout and lots of white with the butterflies, but I changed the embossing folder and sentiment.
This is also for Lydia's fabulous Dare to Get Dirty challenge! Check it out here: Dare to Get Dirty 2012 and take the dare!
We'd love to have you play along with us and there will be prizes!! You'll need to be a Fan Club member but that's easy as pie: Fan Club info.
I stamped the greeting in charcoal chalk ink and used the ODBD Eternity label die to cut it. On the larger label, I embossed images from the Eternity set w/ a clear sparkly embossing powder before die cutting it. The butterfly was embossed w/ the same powder onto vellum before die cutting it and the plain white layer w/ the ODBD custom butterfly die.
After using an embossing folder on the background, I traced a few of the lines w/ a VersaMark pen then heat embossed it. I added some white enamel accents around the sentiment frame and on the raised dots of the background. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups and all the card details are on my blog: The Write Stuff
