The Cuttlebug Spot ~ Lace

Hello, it is time for another challenge from The Cuttlebug Spot.  This week the challenge is to use lace on your project.  I sometimes struggle with lace on my cards, it just never looks right to me.  As a result I tend not to use it very often, but on this card I really like how it added to this card.


The stamps are from Rubberneckers set Floral Silhouete.  I started by masking off the flowers on the stamp and then inked the leaves/branches with Memento Pistachio.  Next I removed the painters tape and with Memento Cantaloupe marker I inked the flowers.  Then I gave the stamp a good huff and stamped it.  After cutting out with Spellbinders Label One and before removing the die I lightly sponged with Pistachio ink.  I finished up by adding some small pearls to the center of the flowers.  I am also entering this card into the monthly challenge at Stamping Sisterhood, this month it is an inspiration piece.  The inspiration piece is a photo of graduation cupcakes.  I wanted something that could be used as a graduation card or a card of encouragement.   Make sure you stop by The Cuttlebug Spot to get the full details of the challenge and to see the gorgeous creations from my fellow DT members.  Thank you for stopping by and have a super week.
