An elegant border

To make this card, I stamped the Elegant Borders stamp set from Stampendous, with Rich Cocoa ink from Memento on an ivory 4"x6" folded card. 

I then cut it out and inserted a piece of kraft cardstock (cuttlebug embossed) under it. 

I stamped my 'Stampin'Up" roses and leaves onto coloured paper from my 'Making Memories" 6"x6" paper pad,  and cut them out.  

I pieced the roses together to create a motif. 

The sentiment is a peel-off sticker from 'Anita's'. I finished it off with some adhesive gemstones and pearls bouught locally.

I love the way it has turned out. I hope you like it too!

Playing With Backgrounds 7

Another background using 'Stamped Stiches' stamp set from 'Hot Off The Press'. 

I really had fun with this one!!  

The background is stamped with "Memories' acid free dye ink in Sand.

The rose stamp is from Stampin' Up and the leaves I bought sooooooooo long ago, I just don't remember! I stamped the  rose and the leaves with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on papers from the 'Making Memories'  'Just Chillin' 6x6" Paper pad, cut them out and paper pieced them using 3D foam tape.

The sentiment is from the 'Vase set'  stamp set from Stampendous. 

The button and cord is from my Bangkok stash! Tag...Spellbinders nestabilities.

A few self adhesive gemstones and pearls ( available in India from A1 craft supplies), and my card was ready.

Just love it!!
