A Fresh Little Card…

I love Cool Caribbean. I think you probably know that by now! 😉 I wanted a fresh look for this card, pairing up my scalloped circle punch, the Little Lady stamp set and some fun new sequins. This was actually to be Saturday’s entry with my {C’est Bon} for Sunday, but seeing as I haven’t been on this blog in 48 very long hours (LOL) we are going to have to play catch up. Come back Monday for the {C’est Bon} entry and another one of my recommended things. 🙂

A Happy Life

For this card design, I first punched out my white giga scalloped circle. I laid a clear acrylic block on top of the circle and arranged my sentiment into a semi-circle to fit perfectly around the edge of my scalloped circle. The sentiment was then inked and stamped twice to get a circular effect.

The little ladybug image was stamped with the apricto ink onto a caribbean circle and then matted with apricot cardstock. I used a square layout format and the main Caribbean layer was stamped with the little flower from the Little Lady set and then embossed with clear embossing powder. I then stitched my layers together with my sewing machine to add interest and I love how it holds it all so neatly and firmly together. The darling little flower sequins and itty bitty brad are by Queen and Company.
