Hi-ya! Back again with another fun little lace doily card to share. This has turned into a fun little series! I'm having a ball using my little Christine Middlecamp-inspired embellies.....I hope you're enjoying seeing this little series as much as I'm enjoying sharing them! :)
For today's card, I started with a berry sorbet card base. The sentiment is one from Beth Silaika's new Get To The Point Sentiments set and I stamped it in berry sorbet ink. I then added a melon berry layer of card stock, stamped with my favie pattern from Background Basics: Retro (also in berry sorbet ink) and I added a strip of stamper's select white card stock along the bottom, that I die cut with the medium scallop border die. I inked up all of the edges with vintage touch tea dye ink and adhered a single strip of berry sorbet saddle stitch ribbon along the bottom of the melon berry panel. The ribbon is adhered with a strip of 1/2" scor-tape that I ran across the melon berry card stock and then laid the ribbon on it, adding a few little ruffles on the left and wrapping the ends around to the back of the card stock.
As for my little doily embellie itself, there's a circle of berry sorbet card stock behind the doily, die cut with a circle nestability die. The flower is a poofy flower that I created using vintage book print (Pam and I hunted at her local Goodwill store for a couple of good, vintage-y childrens' books. I think she paid a whopping sixty-two cents for TWO books!) as well as a berry sorbet button and rustic cream button twine. (See my video tutorial here for how to make poofy flowers) The leaf was die cut with the Delightful Dahlia large leaf die from Bitty Box Basics patterned paper in dark chocolate. Who says leaves always have to be green?? Hee.
That's it for today, Dearies. Thanks so much for popping in to see me!
Smooches!
