Great Friend!

I finally mounted this stamp set today and decided to play. It is much more sparkly in person, I just can't seem to get glitter to show up in my photos.

I decided to apply Crystal Effects and Dazzling Diamonds just to the negative space of the butterflies. (Because every card needs a little bling!)

I pierced the edges of the Orchid Opulence panel and did the faux stitching with a white gel pen to mimic the double stitching on the ribbon.


The Baja Breeze Patterned Paper panel is popped up on dimensionals.


Butterflies were cut out and bent a bit to make them look more 3 dimensional then popped up on 4 dimensionals.


The sentiment was cut out and popped up on dimensionals as well. I used markers to highlight just the word "friend" in Orchid Opulence then colored the remaining words with a Night of Navy marker.


The Certainly Celery base card has the flower stem stamped lightly all over in Cotton White Stazon.
