I created this card for the new Around the World Challenge, which is "Stripes". I started with the striped Irresistibly Yours DSP and a butterfly die-cut from Whisper White card using largest Butterflies Thinlits Die...
Here's some tips on how I achieved some of the fun elements on this card...
- Dauber Crisp Cantaloupe and Pistachio Pudding ink onto the Spring Flowers embossing folder. Spritz ink with water, add Irresistibly Yours Specialty DSP and emboss. Wipe excess ink off the paper's glossy accents to reveal the striped pattern.
- Add a few drops of Crisp Cantaloupe ink to a small amount of water and soak Venetian Crochet Trim. Dry dyed trim thoroughly before using.
- Press VersaMark ink pad onto a Tea Lace Paper Doily. Add gold embossing powder and heat-set.
- Cut the selvage off the length of Calypso Coral ribbon and use the pulled threads.
- Pull gold sequins off the trim and use individually.
