Thanks for a work of art

I’ve been trying not to neglect my stamp sets from the annual catalogue and so I was rather pleased with this card which combines sets all three of the last catalogues – Stampin’ Up! Painted Petals, Papillon Potpourri and Work of Art.

Stampin' Up! Painted Petals, Work of Art, Papillon Potpourri

I started by stamping the swoosh from Work of Art in crumb cake on a crumb cake card stock. Then I rubbed the embossing buddy over the card and stamped the butterfly in versamark. It’s not obvious from the photo, but it’s embossed in gold. The sentiment from Painted Petals is stamped in early espresso. I had half thought of matting this in gold foil but the early espresso looked better. I decided on having a large outside crumb cake frame rather than my usual 1/4 inch frames.

    I like this one. I think that without the gold, it would have been too beige for my personal taste but it’s a nice balance of neutral and metallic. Great job!
