I started out by spritzing the doily stencil on a sheet of silver gray card stock using the Tattered Angels- Patina spritz. I then fussy cut around the doily shape and adhered it to the card front using a permanent adhesive. I then attached a strip of sheer pink two-toned ribbon and a strip of lace ribbon vertically on the card front. The sentiment label was pre-printed on a sheet of 12X12 scrapbook paper from the Dear Jane collection from Die Cuts With a View.
I popped up the sentiment label with foam tape to give the card dimension, then attached a piece of silk ribbon tied in a bow to the top of the label. A butterfly die from Hot Off the Press was then cut from metallic white Neenah card stock and a background of pink. It was then attached to the sentiment label with pop dots. I left the wings loose so they would wiggle in the breeze.
I hope you all had a wonderful day. The weather was wonderful here in So. Texas. Spring is on it's way, but at least one more shot of winter is expected tomorrow. Stay happy!

This is a lovely card - great looking doily. That is truly fussy cutting! By the way, you have a lovely blog.
ReplyDeleteLOVE you gorgeous card Mindy!!! So soft and pretty, you did the inspiration photo perfectly!! I can't wait to see your flower entry!! I wish I had time to sit down an entire day and do nothing but the flowers, as they say, practice makes perfect, and I need all the help I can get...LOL!! Thank you for joining us at CCNS!!!
ReplyDeleteI like how you sprayed the doily then cut it out as a pretty background that didn't overpower the rest of the card. I like the entire card and especially how the ribbon "floats". beautiful!
