Elements of Style

Elements of Style, Smooch Spritz & Mini Vintage Tags Sneak Peek.

This card is created in “Vintage Style”. I started out with a background layer of Kraft cardstock. Using Certainly Celery, stamp the image from “Elements of Style” stamp set using VersaMark ink. Notice how this ink creates a watermark effect. Layer over Very Vanilla & Chocolate Chip cardstock to create the layers.

Using the Big Shot, cut out the large butterfly from “Beautiful Butterflies” die. Stamp with Chocolate Chip ink, the same stamp image used on the Certainly Celery layer.

Place your butterfly in the “Color Catcher”. What is a “Color Catcher” you ask? Available in the Summer Mini, this little box is made to protect your work area from ink overspray. It is made from corrugated cardboard and easy to assemble and what is also great, is that it is compact and portable.

Once your butterfly is placed in the “Color Catcher”, spray using “Gold Glow Smooch Spritz”. Notice on my second picture how gold and vintage looking the butterfly is.

Wrap a “Mini Vintage Tag” around the butterfly’s body and add two “Stampin’ Dimensionals” to keep it in place and adhere to Certainly Celery layer. For the sentiment I used a stamp from the “Teeny Tiny Wishes” stamp set and cut out using the “Word Window Punch”. Glue in place.
