You would never believe how long it took me to make this relatively simple top fold card. I wanted to duplicate the postage stamp die cut in the sketch. Only one problem, I don't have a postage stamp die. I do have a set of scalloped border dies from Pink and Main. How hard could it be to make that shape with a border die? Pretty darn hard! I'm sure I spent well over an hour making that one piece of this card. Next time I see a stamp die on sale, I am buying it!
The Penny Black fussy cut bunny was colored with water color pencils and markers then blended. The sentiment stamp is CTMH, dp is from SU, the large scalloped border is from P&M also, and the embossing folder is by Darice.
I hope you'll have time to play along at
this week.

ReplyDeleteSweet card! I love the bunny! (Reminds me of Beatrix Potter bunnies.)
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain in creating the stamp shape, but you did a great job!!
The rabbit is darling and I love the floral embossing. Your postage stamp turned out perfect and looks like you had a die, so well done.
ReplyDeleteWell at least the time you invested in this card paid off because it’s so pretty I love the bunny and the DP and your creative way to make the stamp die shape!
ReplyDeleteSoooo pretty. The bunny reminds me of Beatrix Potter books and I love that you have a die that looks like a postage stamp!
