Every Friday Sharon Johnson (notimetostamp) has a Stamp Simply Challenge on her blog. This Friday’s challenge is to “Thread It Thru!”, and I’m so happy that I got a chance to play along! For the threading on my card, I used a Martha Stewart Ribbon Edger Punch on both sides of the striped Graphic 45 designer paper. A twill ribbon was then threaded through the holes made by the punch.
Both the image and sentiment stamps are from the Cornish Heritage Farms set, “Scene It, Mountains”.
The card base is Memory Box’s Mocha card stock. The striped and dotted designer papers are from the Graphics 45 “Fashionista” collection. The butterfly is from the Graphics 45 “Botanicabella” collection.
Flatback Accent Pearls were used at the center of the Art Flower and for the butterfly body. Some sparkle was added to the flower with a Stardust Glitter Pen.
If you want to play along, too, visit Sharon’s blog here and get the deets!
