Another UStamp Project - A Scallop Easel Card

The Early Summer Edition of UStamp is currently underway, and the fabulous Jenn Picard had this beautiful Scallop Easel Card as her design project.  Having never done an easel card, I decided to have a go at this one, and I'm so glad I did!  They're so easy!


I'm thrilled to see Butterfly Prints is in the US catalogue and I'm really optimistic that it will be in our new catalogue in September.  I really loved it in the Summer mini catalogue and was sad to see it go.


I love this Kiwi Kiss ribbon.  I must remember to order some more before it retires in September...


Materials:
Stamp sets - Butterfly Prints, Inspired By Nature
Cardstock - Kraft, Naturals Ivory, So Saffron, Bella Bleu DSP
Inks - Kiwi Kiss, So Saffron, Versamark
Accessories - Big Shot, Scallop Circle die, Kiwi Kiss Ribbon

  1. I've sat for a while absolutely mesmerized by this - your bow is amazing & I can see why you want to have a supply of the ribbon before it disappears. I love the whole concept of this - it's so clean somehow & so effective. I'm going to investigate SU here in the UK. Thanks for making me think.

  6. This is a beautiful card! I love the colors, and you've used one of my favorite stamp sets, too.
    Thank you for the lovely comment you left on my blog. I'm so glad you did, because now I've found your blog! I was so touched that you wrote about your PND. So many people won't talk about those kinds of issues, and I feel it's so important to share your story. I had to deal with clinical depression a number of years ago. I'm very open about discussing it.
    I love your cards and I will be adding your blog to my favorites, for sure!
