I have been working all week on my swaps for the Stampin' Up! Regional next week in Orlando. This is one of the six cards I will be bringing. I am making 20 of each card to trade so I will have lots of samples to show you when I get back.
The measurements and layers are as follows:
*Chocolate Chip CS - cut at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
*Crumb Cake CS - cut at 4" x 5 1/4" and stamped with the En Francais backgound stamp in Chocolate Chip Classic Ink
*Chocolate Chip CS - cut at 3 1/4" x 4 1/2"
*Chocolate Chip CS - cut at 3/4" x 4 1/2" and punched with the Pinking Heart Border Punch. I attached this to the right hand side of the previous layer.
*Regal Rose CS - cut at 3" x 4 1/4"
*Very Vanilla CS - cut at 2 3/4" x 4" and stamped with the En Francais background stamp in Regal Rose Classic Ink
*The heart is from the Crosses of Hope Stamp set and was stamped in Chocolate Chip Classic Ink on Very Vanilla CS. It was then cut out leaving a small border around the edge and sponged with Regal Rose Classic Ink.
*Next, I applied Versamark Ink to the cross and covered it with Clear Embossing Powder. Using a pair of tweezers to hold the image in place, I applied heat with the Embossing Tool. The cross is embellished with a Basic Pearl and the smallest butterfly from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die using Daffodil Delight CS and Dazzling Diamonds.
The second Chocolate Chip CS Layer and the cross is raised with a few Stampin' Dimensionals and everything else was attached with Snail Adhesive except the yellow butterfly which I attached with Tombo Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I have been asked more than once how I got the embossed look on the cross so I will post a video tomorrow to show you how easily it is done.
Thanks for stopping by!
