WRBF-3764-2012
Hi there sweet blog friends, popping in to share a quick card.   I’ve been scarce for the last week, but I’m in the middle of some big home projects that have waited for over 10 months and can’t wait any longer.   I’m making headway but it was sooooo good to sit down and play for a minute in between all the changes.  I’m using a die template that I haven’t used before but the style is one that I’m loving lately because of the ease it brings and to me it lets the die speak for itself.  I created my card base using Spellbinders™ Detailed Scallops and layer the base using Spellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics B and Spellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics A.  Then finally on top of that I put Spellbinders™ Radiant Rectangles.  

WRBF-3765-2012

The sweet sentiment is from Quietfire Design and is called The Only True Gift.  The card just begged for pearls, so I gave in with abandon :-)

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Quietfire Design – The Only True Gift
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest – Natural White – 80 lb, Bazzill
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories:  Spellbinders™ Detailed ScallopsSpellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics BSpellbinders™ 5×7 Matting Basics ASpellbinders™ Radiant Rectangles, Recollections Pearls, May Arts Silk Ribbon,
 Becca’s Bow Maker

Thanks for stopping by!!  In addition to my house stuff, I’m working on some things I promised to show that I hope to have ready soon!

    I love this card as well as many others you’ve designed. I’m fairly new at card making and can’t figure our what you’ve done on the fold. How is the card held together? Both the front & back appear to have a scallop edge.
    I’m sure seasoned card makers know how it’s done but, as a newby I’m confused.ReplyCancel

    Dear Becca, I just found your website and am so impressed with your work. It’s just beautiful. I especially love the elegant flourish style. You made a card a year or two ago, it was a vintage style and you said that you used a Spellbinders fleur de lis die – it was a round one. Would love to find that one, but I think it has been discontinued. I will be visiting your blog often.ReplyCancel

  • Linda EckerMarch 28, 2013 - 7:28 am

WRBF-3760-2012
Hi there blog friends!!  I hope you had a glorious week!  The wait is over!!!  It has been so sweet to get inky with these new Waltzingmouse Stamps, they are so dad gummed cute!  For the last several days we’ve been previewing the stamps and now, here are all the sets, you can see them in full – HERE.   If you jumped in the middle of our list, the best way to make your way through the hop is to start at Claire’s Blog she has the complete sequence if you get out of order or if one of the links don’t work.  If you have just come here from Tosh’s blog then you are in the right place!  In order complete the hop, leave a comment on as many of the Design Team Members Blogs as you can as a random name is selected from each blog and then a final winner picked from those names.  The  winner gets a free set of their choice of Waltzingmouse stamps. You have until March 12th at  5:59am CST to leave your comment and a winner will be selected and shown on Claire’s Blog on March 13th. Stay tuned, below I’ll tell you your next stop along the hop!!  

WRBF-3761-2012
Here are links to each of the new sets:
A Good Egg Set
Folk Art Labels No. 25 Set
Folk Art Medallion Set

For my project today I made a square filigree card (4″ x 4″) using Spellbinders™ Adorning Squares.  To make room for a sentiment I layered Spellbinders™ Scalloped Labels One on top and embellished it behind with an accent piece from Spellbinders™ Venetian Accents.  That created a perfect little area to stamp the flourish and sentiment from the Folk Art Medallion Set.   I also crafted a little box – instead of me creating one from scratch, I used  Spellbinders™ Square Bracket Edge Box because the Folk Art motifs fit perfectly on the sides!  Because Folk Art Medallions is broken down into different concentric stamps, you can change colors with each concentric motif you stamp, as I did on the box.  On the lid I stamped the same flourish motifs from Folk Art Medallions and then added the little pennant from A Good Egg.  On top of the box I added a little dimension using Spellbinders™ Eyelet Circles and lastly attached a little tag using Spellbinders™ Back to Basics Tags and stamped with ‘to’ and ‘from’ using Folk Art Labels No. 25 Set.

WRBF-3762-2012
I added a 2.75″ tall piece of paper around the inside of the box in order to extend the lid and make the box taller so that you could see the stamped motifs clearly.

WRBF-3756-2012
Sweet blog friends, I hope you are having a stellar day.  Welcome to Preview Day 3 of Waltzingmouse Stamps March Releases.  We started out with some sweet easter images on Day 1 and a Folk Art Label on Day 2.  Today we take it a step further with the Folk Art Medallion set.  There are lots of options with the medallion and the ability to color different sections indiviually as you will see as you jump around and visit the Design Team.  Me?  I decided to go with tone on tone today.  It definitely has the folksy pattern but I gave it a little bit of an elegant slant.   I created a stacked card (6″ x 6″).  After laying several tiers I added an accent with Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Three and embossed one of the Folk Art Elements on the end.  On the next level up I introduced embossed paper made with Spellbinders™ Harlequin M-Bossabilities.  I stamped the medallion on kraft paper and embossed with white embossing powder.  You probably think it looks cream – well it is, I colored the embossing powder with ink to get the color I wanted.  Lastly I added a large bow and hung off of it a tiny little tag with a sentiment from the Folk Art Medallion set – the tag was cut with Spellbinders™ Back to Basics Tags.

WRBF-3757-2012

I also crafted a large tag, partially cut with Labels Twenty Three.  I stamped a motif at the bottom and added two round pieces at the top for hole reinforcement.  On a pennant cut manually that I situated sideways, I added the wonderful thank you sentiment from the Folk Art Medallion set.

    Yours is my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I am a definite kraft paper person so the kraft and white is a definite for me ~ don’t need all the color. Of course, whatever you do is simply elegant and this one is no different ~ definitely a BECCA masterpiece.

  • Kate LMarch 8, 2013 - 3:10 am

    Love your sample. Wow this set looks great in colour and in tone on tone. If you don’t mind me asking, did you colour the embossing powder after embossing or have you added some colour to the powder itself. Either way I’d love to know how. I’ve been looking for off white embossing powder for ages now.ReplyCancel
