A Very Versailles Card

Hey Everyone

I’ve been a bit quiet on here as I’ve been trying to clean up my craft room. I really only try for about an hour before I discover something I haven’t seen in ages and get sidetracked.

In-between the hour of effort to clean up, I decided to pull out the Very Versailles Stamp Set and get my fussy cutting on. Fussy cutting relaxes me and I enjoy the challenge of snipping around these leaves. The leaves have been given colour with the Smoky Slate and Gorgeous Grape Markers by applying ink directly to the leafy stamp. After huffing on the stamp, I stamped the image on Basic White Cardstock and fussy cut it out.

I then inked up the butterfly and gave it some colour with the Fresh Freesia and Highland Heather Blends. The butterfly also got the fussy cutting treatment.

For the base of the card, I took the Light Soft Sea Foam Blend and added some colour before stamping the script background stamp. The script stamp was inked up with Black Memento Ink. To the edge fo the Basic White Cardstock, I added a torn piece of Gorgeous Grape Cardstock and a strip of Sahara Sand Cardstock. I keep all of my off cut pieces of cardstock for this very reason.

To finish off my card, I took a piece of Mossy Meadow Braided trim and placed it under the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
