Lacey and Lovely SB5 Sketch Challenge

 

Happy Saturday!

Saturday's are my stamping days!  I had fun today creating this one!  It took a lot of time because of all the Rhinestones (LOL) but I really do like how it came out and the blue, orange and pink accents on the gray and blank.  Don't you?

Instructions To Create This Lacey and Lovely Card

1. So, basically I took a piece of the piece of the Neutrals Designer Series Pack and then cut it.  It is double sided so I then flipped the one side over!  So one piece of paper = two designs. Very cool!  Then adhered it to the white card base using SNAIL adhesive.
2. Then stamp the flourish swirl using the Flowering Flourishes stamp set.  Yes, some areas I filled in with Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker!
3. Next, cut the piece of Basic Black card stock and used the Scallop Edge, and adhered it using SNAIL adhesive.
4. Next, added the ribbon adhering using the SNAIL and Mini Glue Dots.
5. Next, used the Floral Frame Framelists (3rd size) to die cut the Pacific Point flower (paper from the Brights Designers Series Pack).
6. Next, stamped the Lacely & Lovely image in Basic Black Ink.  Then used the 2nd Floral Frame (from Floral Frames Framelits) to cut it to a flower shape. Then colored one of the edges with the Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Write Marker.  Next, added Rhinestones near the center, outside where you see the Button.
7. Adhere the stamped image to the Pacific Point paper using SNAIL, then adhere the flower to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
8. Last but not least I added the Pink buttons (adhering using Mini Glue Dots) and added the Rhinestones to the centers.
