This month at Just For Fun it's Neet's turn to choose a theme and she has chosen Favorites. This week you have to use your Favorite Stamp. I have a lot of stamps I love but the one I've chosen is by Paper Inspirations, it's one of my all time favorites. Here are a couple of cards that I've made with it.
I started of by covering a card blank with some Anna Griffin paper then I went round the edge with peeled paint Distress ink and stamped butterflies down one side - I don't know who made the stamp. I embossed some green card with a Cuttlebug embossing folder and distressed it with a sanding block, tied some ribbon round it and attached it to the card with some gold brads. The main image was stamped onto some patterned card and I matted it onto some black card befor attaching it to the card blank. The happy birthday is an Inkadinkado stamp.
This is the second card that I made. All the ingredients are the same except that I added a Tando Creative frame that I'd coloured with some peeled paint Distress stain and then I added some galaxy gold Brilliance ink. I also added some Martha Stewart punched Butterflies.
Blown away by these they are quite simply wonderful elegant and very special. Thank you for sharing these with us at Just for Fun XOXO Zoe

ReplyDeleteOooh I agree Hazel, a fabulous stamp. At first I thought you'd collaged the face and the dragonflies, but I see from the second card it's exactly the same - lol.
