My Stampin' Up! Classes

NEW! Dream du Jour...

This is another new set that will be in the Fall-Winter Idea Book & Catalog. I used the Poppin' Pastel technique for the background, stamping the Floral background stamp in VersaMark ink and using sponge daubers to spread Always Artichoke and Bravo Burgundy pastels on top in a random pattern.

The butterfly is stamped in Always Artichoke and colored with a little Brilliant Blue and Bravo Burgundy pastels. It's stuck on with a mini glue dot.

There's a strip of Always Artichoke on the bottom, layered with half a piece of Bravo Burgundy (faux suede technique). You rub the card stock between a bone folder and your thumb till the card stock separates. When you peel the layers apart, it feels and looks like suede!

The Bravo Burgundy flower is punched from the Boho Blossom punch with a So Saffron brad in it. The "We Grow Great By Dreams" is stuck over the wide burgundy grosgrain ribbon with dimensionals. It's really quite pretty in person - and the butterfly wings stick up for a cool 3d look.
