This is my first blog post, but not my first card. I have been stamping since I was 4 and I am now 13. My grandma got me hooked on stamping. I used to help her teach workshops in her home, but she does design work using many varieties of stamp sets. I will be posting more crafts not just stamping, I hope you enjoy my talent!
This is a card that I made for my friends Mom. On the front I knew that I wanted to use quilt the background and wanted to have some kind of flowers on the front. I asked my Grandma to show me how to make the vellum flowers and I made 5 for my card. For the quilt background paper I used a Martha Stewart design paper and used the ScorBuddy to make the score lines. I used a Martha Stewart border and corner punch to make the lacy design. Then I used a stamp for the stem and the leaves and then attached my vellum flowers, for the center of the flower I used a small black bead. I also used a JustRite "Just A Note" I also used another small stamp from SU for the "thank you" and i used three small pearls at the bottom to complete the front.
On the inside I used the JustRite "Joyful Hearts" stamp set for my greeting. Also, at the bottom trim of the card I used the same Martha Stewart design paper.
I also made a beaded gift to go with my card for my friends mom, hope she likes it!
