Ribbon Flower


Wonderful You

I saw something on the front of a magazine and wondered if I could turn it into a card . . . and I did!




Supplies:
   
Stamp Set:  Loving Thoughts (w-#125843 C-#125845)
Card Stock:  Old Olive (#100702), Island Indigo (#122923), Naturals White (#102316), 
and Cherry Cobbler (#119685)   
Ink:  Cherry Cobbler (#126966)
Accessories:  Ruffled Ribbon - Lucky Limeade (#122977), Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons (#127555), Large Pearl Basic Jewels (#125577), Sponge Daubers (#102892), SNAIL adhesive (#104332 Refil #104331), Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430) Big Shot Machine (#113439), and Fashionable Hearts Embosslits (#125596) 


Here's a little more information . . . 

The hearts are adhered at 3 levels; flat, with 1 dimensional, and with 2 dimensionals. They are also sponged with the daubers and Cherry Cobbler ink. 

The Ribbon flower was just wrapped back and forth as I stitched each layer to next ending by sewing on the button.  Then I just added the large pearl in the center to cover the stitching.   

Here's a Close up!

Until Next Time . . .

Stationary


English Ivy
Simply Sentiments
With a
Monogram Stamp
You Can Customize!


The envelopes and writing paper in this kit are so elegant.  Frankly I was a little worried about stampin' on it.  I wasn't sure if it would be too much or take away from the elegance.  But I love it.  No need for a class on this one, just place your order and create away.  I used Chocolate Chip ink, I wanted it medium dark...what do you think?


Until Next Time . . .
