I started with another new purchase,
Martha Stewart's Punch Around the Page Eyelet Lace punch #42-60013.
When my square was punched out from white cardstock, I used it as a
stencil first sponging Distress stamp pads Broken China & Forest
Moss. Then I continued to color the punched out square. Punched out
the top and bottom borders of the stencilled background with the
Doily Lace.
Stacked 8 pieces of Costco's magazine
and die cut them with the Tattered Flower die. Glued them together
at the center, then added this humungous brad through the flower and
the punched out square, then put a very large turquoise colored faux
rhinestone in the center. Fluffed up the flower. Adhered that layer
to the stencilled layer off set.
Adhered my ribbon to the card, then my
stencilled floral element. Tied a knot in my ribbon and adhered that
separately, then adhered the button, removing the shank.
Colored some white cardstock with more
Distress greens, misted with water to get a nice distress coloring,
punched out the flourish (EK Success Flourish) and the teardrop
leaves (Fiskars Squeeze punch set). Adhered them to the card placing
the teardrops like leaves. Added veins on the leaves and lines on
the stems with a brown Zig writer. Added half pearls in a saffronish
yellow. Added faux stitching along two edges with the same marker.
Final step was to rubber stamp the Happy
Birthday (Quietfire Design)
with Versafine Vintage Sepia and clear emboss it.
