I then adhered the panel to the Bumblebee card front.

I wrapped the Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the left side of the card and tied a bow.

Success

The dry embossing shines beautifully on the Poppy Parade paper. It does make an impact. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Full of Life

Paper:

   Poppy Parade A-2

   Bumblebee 3 x 4

   Fine Art Floral DSP 1-1/2 x 4

   Golden Garden Acetate 1-1/2 x 4

   Dry Embossing

Accessories:

   Fern 3D Embossing Folder

   Frosted Flower Embellishment

   Star Designer Elements

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I dry embossed my card front with the Fern 3D embossing folder. I misted it with a bit of water to prevent tearing.

Next, I stamped the sentiment toward the top of the Bumblebee panel.

I then adhered it to the card front, using liquid adhesive.

Next, I adhered the Golden Garden Acetate to the matching Fine Art Floral DSP. I used glue dots underneath the gold, so they would not be noticeable. 

I then adhered this panel onto the lower part of the Bumblebee panel on the card front.

Lastly, I added some embellishments (flower and stars) and adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Thank You Floral 4x4

These 4" square cards make full use of your beautiful 12 x 12 designer sheets. They also fit nicely into a regular A-2 card size envelope. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Art Gallery

Paper:

   Bumblebee 4 x 8 scored @ 4"

   Fine Art Floral DSP 4" Sq.

   Golden Garden Designer Acetate 4" Sq.

   Basic White 3-1/4 x 3-1/2, 3-3/4" Sq. (Inside)

Ink:

   Flirty Flamingo

   Mossy Meadow

   Powder Pink

Technique:

   Punching

Accessories:

   Scalloped Border Punch

   Glittered Organdy Ribbon

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I adhered the acetate to the designer series paper, using glue dots in the center where the image would be mounted. This way, they are invisible to everyone.

I then stamped my image and sentiment. I used Powder Pink for the base of the flower and Flirty Flamingo as the accent color. The leaves, stem, and sentiment are stamped using Mossy Meadow.

Next, I used the scalloped border punch on the sides of the image. In retrospect, I should have punched strips and adhered them under the image to give it a more even look. Still, this is what makes it quite unique. Mistakes and all...

I wrapped a bit of glittered organdy ribbon around the image and tied a bow.

Lastly, I adhered the designer series paper and acetate panel to the Bumblebee card front and attached the image panel to the center. I adhered the 3-3/4" square of Basic White to the inside of the card.

Sponging along the tear accentuates the image. I also like that the color sprays onto more of the white paper. Thoughts?

   Golden Garden Designer Acetate 5-1/4 x 4

Next, I tore around the image and sentiment. I tore the paper toward me and then sponged the edges using Flirty Flamingo.

I adhered the designer series paper with the acetate panel onto the Old Olive card front.

I then added the image to the center of the card.

I attached a dragonfly that was left-over from a previous project to the card. You can use the Dragonflies punch to create some.

Sponging along the tear accentuates the image. Many are using blending brushes now for this technique, but I still turn to my overly used sponges. Thoughts?

   Flirty Flamingo A-2

   Fine Art Floral DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Golden Garden Designer Acetate 5-1/4 x 4

First, I adhered the acetate to the designer series paper. I placed glue dots in places that would not be noticeable.

I then stamped the image and the sentiment. I used Powder Pink and then Flirty Flamingo as the accent color. The stem, leaves and sentiment were stamped in Old Olive.

Next, I tore the paper around the image and sentiment. I tore the paper toward me. 

I then sponged it using Powder Pink.

HAPPY STAMPING!

Perfection

Sometimes we just have to find humor in our lives. Laugh Out Loud or at least SMILE! Thoughts?

Stamps:

   Approaching Perfection

Paper:

   Mossy Meadow A-2

   Bumblebee 3 x 4

   Fine Art Floral DSP 1-1/2 x 4

   Golden Garden Designer Acetate 1-1/2 x 4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:

   Dry Embossing

Accessories:

   Fern 3D Embossing Folder

   Water Mister

   Basic Rhinestone Jewels

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

First, I misted the Mossy Meadow card front with a bit of water and dry embossed it using the Fern 3D embossing folder. The moisture helps to keep the paper from tearing during the embossing.

I then stamped the sentiment on the top part of the Bumblebee panel. I used Tuxedo Black Memento.

I then adhered this piece to the center of the card front using liquid adhesive. 

Next, I adhered the acetate piece onto the matching DSP, using glue dots. I applied the glue dots in places that would not be easily visible, like under the gold.

I attached these two pieces onto the card front below the sentiment.

Lastly, I added some rhinestones and adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
