For today I have a favourite for you. I was inspired by a few things I saw at Convention to help bring this card to life. I saw a divine card (created using the MEDALLION stamp set) on one of the display boards at Convention. Unfortunately I don’t know who made the card but I loved it. Shelli Gardner (SU CEO) also shared a gorgeous little box/ bag during a presentation on stage and I took elements from that I loved.
I wanted to add my own little “spin” to the inspiration I drew from Convention and used a stamping technique known as “EMBOSS RESIST” to create my card. Here it is…….
STAMP SETS: En Francais Background, Medallion
CARDSTOCK: Rich Razzleberry, Pink Pirouette, Basic Grey,
INKS: Rich Razzleberry, Basic Grey
OTHER: Half back pearl from pretties kit, Pretty in Pink Taffeta Ribbon,
