Adding another idea on how to make the most of the
Stamp Set of the Month this month -
Pocket Silhouettes,
I'd like to share this eye catching card with you.
This was the card we made as our make and take at Barbara's workshop last week.
Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes
Ink: Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip
Card: Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White, Summer Sun,
Good Morning Sunshine DS Papers
Accessories: Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Silver Brad
Tools: Eyelet Border Punch, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Trio Flower Punch, Horizontal Slot Punch, Paper Piercer (for brad), Dauber, and Adhesives including Dimensionals.
The cute little flower is two layers created by 2 of the punches from the Flower Trio. When you place the brad in the centre you can curl the petals up a bit and it gives a cute 3D little flower embellishment.
TOP TIP: I did learn a good lesson with getting the eyelet border effect through two layers that I'd like to share... as you may notice, I have punched through DS and card stock together. This is not easy... my lesson... don't try this at home! lol. No really, it was quite an effort to punch through both layers with the eyelet border. BUT I did discover however a much easier way I'd like to share. Punch the edge of the card stock with your border punch first. Then adhere the DS over the punched area. Looking from the underside you can see where you had punched the card stock. Line this up again with your punch and now you will only be punching through the DS that was adhered over the top of the already punched card. Funny how you discover little tricks!
