I LOVE that thing (totally worth every penny I spent!). The possibilities are really endless with what you can create. In this example… the frame, dotted line, and sentiment were cut out with it and I added Prima flower accents, a rub-on, and some Hero Arts pearls to embellish. The embossed background texture is Swiss dots (Cuttlebug). TFL! :)

Have you seen them yet? They just started carrying some in my local Hobby Lobby & I picked up one you can use to build a flower. I made the below card by layering the regular & scalloped petal layers. The tops were brushed with pink chalk inks & it’s hard to tell from the pic, but I added some Stickles for sparkle. The border was made with a white gel pen, and the sentiment stamp is Hero Arts. BTW – every once in a while you stamp something & go … man that wasn’t the color I wanted! Quick solution – stamp with different ink on a scrap & adhere over the original sentiment. Hmmm… that just might have happened here. ;) *LOL*

I embossed light brown cardstock with the Cuttlebug script embossing folder & lightly rubbed brown ink across the top for a distressed look. The flower is a Sizzix diecut & the paper is Basic Grey. Lace is Making Memories. :)

The chipboard was stamped with a Hero Arts Hello! sentiment and the hi is from the Olivia cuttlebug alphabet. Striped pattern paper from Christina Cole.
