This Too Shall Pass!

I want to share another card I made for a few friends at Convention.  As you know I'm a big fan of the From My Heart (126557) stamp set.  So many great things you can do with it and I think I've used EVERY image in the set now.  WOW.  Don't you love it when you give a stamp set a lot of loving?  My favorite part is when I look at the rubber and see that it's REALLY used.  {LOVE}! You will get your money's worth with this stamp set. 

For this card I used the Etruscan Elegance Jumbo wheel at the top.  This will be available August 1st.  Are you getting excited?

*I embossed using the wheel and Pewter Embossing Powder.

*Next I added a few layers by first starting with a piece of Summer Starfruit cardstock, then I used vellum and embossed with the Fancy Fan Folder. 

*I cut banners from the Fan Fair DSP and placed them on top of two layers of ribbon (Victoria Lace and Stitched Satin Summer Starfruit) and sewed them onto my cardstock layers in a zig zag fashion. 

* I stamped the From My Heart image using Early Espresso ink and die cut using my Labels Framelits Die Cut.  I sponged around the edges lightly. I adhered this using dimensionals. 

*I added a Brushed Bronze Designer Button (Holiday Mini item) tied with Linen thread. 

*The last thing I added, my spritzer tool using Early Espresso ink. 

Believe it or not, sewing on your cards is not hard and it's great if you want a small banner to stay in place.
