Hi Everyone
Thank you for stopping by. It's Jay here and I am sharing the card I am entering for Kylie Bertucci's International Stampin' Up! Blog Highlights. The Top 10 winners, voted by you will then participate on a Blog Hop with Kylie next month
The theme for this month is Sympathy; to create a project to let family or friends know that you are thinking of them during their difficult time. Here is my card using the flower stamp from Butterfly Basics Photopolymer set and it would be great if you can take time to vote for my project, PHOTO #10 at http://bit.ly/SeptemberHighlightsVoteforMe
Sahara Sand Cardbase 10.5cm x 29.7cm
Basic Gray Layer 9.5cm x 13.9cm
Whisper White 6.5cm x 11cm
Stampin' Markers: Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Pear Pizzazz & Old Olive
Classic Stampin' Ink Pads: Dapper Denim & Soft Sky
The image was stamped on Whisper White card with Tuxedo Black then Clear Embossed before colouring using Stampin' Markers & Blender Pen. I then did the sponging, creating a halo around the image by applying darker inks around the edges
The aperture on Basic Gray card was created using the Everyday Label Punch from the seasonal catalogue. Normally the punched area measures 3.8cm x 6.1cm but I extended it to 5cm x 10cm for all flowers to be seen
Check out our Quick Tip Video on how you can extend the aperture of the Everyday Label Punch below:
It was looking a bit bare so I used the Year of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape before adhering the Basic Gray card with Stamping Dimensionals
For extra texture I also added the Copper Trim and Gold Metallic Thread embellishments. The sentiment from Hopeful Thoughts Set was stamped in Tuxedo Black and then raised with Stamping Dimensionals

A very beautiful card, as always, and perfect for the occasion. The Copper Trim embellishment has really caught my eye - how clever to think of making pearl embellished leaves!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous card Jay. Such a clever way to use the punch. So simple yet so effective.
