Ladybug Crafts Ink carries a sweet line of Floral Delight Too digital images featuring a whimsical variety of floral images.  I've used Jug and Vase Delight to create a side open card to send warm wishes to someone special.

As I wanted to keep my White On White card elements as the main focus, I used some of my lightest Copic colors to fill my image in a very simple way.  This view shows my Copic-filled image . . .

I had a lot of fun making my border as I wanted my White On White elements to be special even though they were lacking color or pattern.  I first used my Marvy Uchida Clever Lever Quick Borders Craft Punch with a Scallop Flower punch cassette.  Close To My Heart Bitty Sparkles are centered in each punched flower.  A McGill 1/4" ribbon stitch hand punch provided slots for me to weave my Offray 1/4" grosgrain white ribbon and double bow.  Finally a ProvoCraft butterfly hand punch added a third layer to my border.

Layers of Bazzill Avalanche white textured cardstock form my card.  One matted layer is dry embossed using a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder.  Lifestyle Crafts' Large Circles and Large Scalloped Circles shape my image.  A popped-up EK Success Whale of a Punch Photo Corner Scallop punch is lined with Heidi Swapp clear bling to decorate my upper corner.  Whimsy Stamps' The Good Life Tickets sentiment is die cut using their Ticket Die for sharing a warm sentiment.

Here's a view of my completed card front showcasing Ladybug Crafts Ink Floral Delight Too Jug and Vase Delight . . .

MiC and LMM Freebie Challenge - Graffiti Party

Make It Crafty and Little Miss Muffet Stamps are hosting a Graffiti Party and provided this amazing free MiC and LMM artwork to those who want to participate.

I was so inspired by Lynne K's screen card (here), that I decided to use these fun Little Miss Muffet and Make It Crafty Graffiti Party images on my own screen card:

This was my first attempt at making a screen card.  DCWV white core cardstock allowed for a bit of detail to show when sanded.  Zutter's 1/2" Round-it-All corner rounder softened my tops.  The base of the large tag from a Sizzix Traditional Combo Tags die cut through all four panels to square off the bottoms.  I lost a leg or two while running the panels through the die cut machine to emboss with Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations Bricked Texture Fade then lightly sanded the raised bricks.  A golden leaf charm hangs from a jump ring on a hemp bow. A Sakura Gelly Roll medium white pen adds some sharp highlights to my eyeglasses and graffiti letters.  A Stampers Anonymous Tim Holtz Collection Stuff to Say sentiment fits nicely on the last panel.

Other than my loss of legs, I like the embossed look of the background.  I need to work on reinforcing and strengthening the legs to be able to hold the weight of my images and heavier embellishments on future screen cards.  They do make nice displays for scenery.
