Another Peaceful Place - an elegant card

This version of the Peaceful Place stamp set is so elegant looking it could be used as an anniversay or wedding card.

The picture doesn't do it justice!  Foil paper is notoriously difficult to photograph.

Using the stamparatus, I stamped the image onto a 3 by 4" piece of Whisper White card stock 

using Versa Mark ink.  The image was then gold embossed and when cool, cut into 3 equal 1 by 4" pieces.  Each piece was matted with a 1 1/8 by 4 1/8 piece of gold foil paper and adhered to the  stripped embossed Whisper White layer.  This layer was also matted with gold foil paper before being adhered to a top fold Whisper White card base.

Below the 3 panels, I added a 1/8 by 4" piece of gold foil and added a piece of  1/8" Copper edged Very Vanilla ribbon tied into a knot, under the middle panel.

I did not add a sentiment to this card.

Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Peaceful Place
Ink:  Versa Mark
Papers:  Whisper White, gold foil
Accessories:  Simple Stripe embossing folder, gold embossing powder,  1/8" copper edged Very Vanilla ribbon

Congrats - The Paper Players a CAS #291 with Butterflies

CAS cards have always been difficult for me, but what has really helped me is being more conciencious about using the "Cost Calculator" on the SU website.

I no longer now go "Oh No! A CAS challenge"

This card was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest, and I just love the gold foil Butterfly and I just love the simplicity of it.

The basic cardstock is Bermuda Bay, layered with Whisper White.

I then cut 4 pieces of cardstock 2 3/8" each ; 2 in 2 colours - Bermuda Bay and Pear Pizzazz.  Using the corner rounder, I rounded 2 of the 4 corners, and placed then near the top middle of the card, with one of the pointed ends of each square facing the inside.  I adhered them to the card front using tombo glue.

A medium butterfly was die cut using gold foil, and added to the middle of the squares with only tombo on the body.

The sentiment, from "Happy Happenings" was embossed with gold embossing powder.  I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig to center the word.

Supplies Used:
