For my card, I started with inspiration from the new background set by Our Daily Bread Designs named He Shall Be Called. It simply seemed so regal that I decided I wanted to go with a dressy card. I cut down this large piece of lacey Anna Griffin paper to a 6″ x6″ size and added a mat on the interior to hold my background. Once the background was stamped, I cut/embossed both Spellbinders Lacey Ovals and Spellbinders Classic Ovals SM to make a frame and then I laid in that delightfully frilly Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two. It fits perfectly – sweet serendipity! The sentiment I used is from the new Anchor set and I was determined it was going inside that tag. To ensure placement, I stamped first then cut. Because I could see through my Spellbinders die to frame the text, I had no issues hitting it the very first time!! Amazing new sets, hunh!! Be sure you leave a comment so that you have the chance to win. Just sayin’!
| SUPPLIES I USED: |
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs – Anchor, He Shall Be Called (Background)
Paper: Anna Griffin (Michaels), Bazzill, Gold Foil
Ink : Versamark and Gold Embossing Powder
Accessories : Spellbinders Lacey Ovals, Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two, Spellbinders Classic Ovals SM, Pearls, Ribbon, Button

Thanks so much for the ruching technique. It is a very lovely effect. Your card is simply gorgeous. I really love how you have added the fleur de lis element to label 14. Fleur de lis is just one of my favorites, and I am so glad that spellbinders has introduced so many fleur de lis die sets this past release. Can’t wait until they arrive.

Your card is just gorgeous! THANKS SO MUCH for the marvelous tutorials. I tried the rolled flower recently and it was so easy since I could follow your simple instructions. I have also tried this technique but just used a straight running stitch. Next time I will use your version and I’m sure with more success.
Such stunning work, as always! Thank you so much for this tutorial, the ruching is just beautiful. I must definitely give this a try some time in the near future =)
Thank you for showing this beautiful ribbon project.
This is fabulous Becca! Thanks for showing us how :)
Love and prayers of blessings ~ Lori
