Thank You Kindly




Hello everyone. It is nearly a week since school resumed. Three days of professional development and one day with the children. New grade, new team and in a new open learning space. My brain is frazzled! The remedy is to fit in some craft.

I am completing a card layout for WMSC82.




I stamped the Victorian Frippery lacy border stamp onto the background paper then distressed and inked the edges using distress ink.




Using a Fancy Phrase border and sentiment, I created a tag.




To finish the card, I added a glittery butterfly to add a little bling!



Supplies:

Paper: Prima Romantique Collection, Stampin’ Up Whisper White

Stamps: Waltzingmouse Victorian Frippery and Fancy Phrases

Ink: Tim Holtz Old paper distress ink, Stampin” up soft suede and real red

Other: Martha Stewart doily lace edge punch, red ribbon, glitter butterfly and trinket, Stampin’ Up distressing tool and Bow Easy.

Thanks for looking!
