Looks like a normal card. Right? Well it’s not……. 🙂
IT’S A TWISTED CARD! The Ladies, in both my classes last week, were so quiet! Not much chatting going on! It is not a complicated card but there was a lot of cutting out to do. Mmm…..Give a woman a pair of scissors and it is silence! (Don’t tell the men)
For the front of the card we used the technique of MASKING. So masks had to be cut out. The flowers inside the card had to be cut out too.
Another view
OK…. I used Vellum butterflies (again). Just love them. This one has a sparkle!
This give a view of showing how the flowers seem to be behind the main one. That’s masking! Ah, isn’t the butterfly beautiful?
NOW FOR THE INSIDE
Two Edges punched. Method for stamping the foliage – ink and stamp twice or three times without re-inking.
Use Whisper White Ink to stamp the flowers and let dry before cutting.
Stamp sentiment. Place flowers around the lower edge.
Notice that all the flowers are attached at different heights.
STAMP SETS: Curvy Verses, Great Friend, Fast & Fabulous (level 2)

Phew….. Now I think this post deserves a comment or two, don’t you? (Off to do the housework -yuk)
