Sunday Stampers week 207

Time for the Sunday Stampers challenge again - gosh the weeks do pass by quickly! This time the theme is WORDS and I've done a sort of double challenge because I actually managed to make this card without breaking into anything other than my scrap bits boxes.  Backing paper was a lucky find with illuminated type letters on it, the diamond border was a scrap left from a previous project - stamped with flitter glue using an Indigo Blu stamp and gilded with flakes.  The die cut shape was cut from a remnant of card printed with Love Letters (a brilliant download from Chocolate Baroque) using a Sizzix die; the sentiment is a stamp from Chocolate Baroque Artistic Affirmations cut with Nestabilities; grungeboard swirl and layered flower were also oddments from the boxes.  I always seem to have leftovers when I do any die-cutting in more than one colour so it was good to be able to use these up here.

  1. Love how the sentiment is the focal point on your card...like the daisy die on the swirl...

  2. This is gorgeous Val, I love that backing paper with the the letters on. A beautiful flower made with the scraps too. I very often get out the scrap box and the die cutting stuff and just cut out odd things like corners and swirls ready to pop onto projects. Never seems to make much of a dent on the boxes of scraps though.

  4. Uh oh - looks like another stamp sheet moves up a notch on the wish list, those words are rather special & so true! Brilliant with you using up the scraps again - isn't it satisfying?
    Love the colours & the way the focus is on the wording with the white background for the letters.
