For my card, I using two stamp sets being released this week. For the daisies and sentiment, I used the Oopsy Daisy set and for the butterflies, I used a set we'll be featuring later this week, Scenic Selections. What a great set that you can use for so many things.
Recipe:
Paper-MFP 100 lb. premium cover white cardstock
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black and Cantaloupe (for sponging around image)
Accessories: Copics, ColorBox Victorian Parlour die cut accents (doily) adhesive sticker
I also wanted to make an altered clipboard with the Oopsy Daisy set. I picked up my clipboard at Office Depot and covered the background with a Tim Holtz Alterations bricked embossing folder. The punched border at the top is made with a Martha Stewart Laurel Leaf punch.
I stamped my image 10 times for a 3D effect, colored, cut out, and popped them on. The centers are buttons. I'm using a leaf and ladybug from the same set. It is so adorable.
Added a ribbon from Offray and the initials are chipboard that I colored with Copics.
