Just got the Martha Stewart circle cutter yesterday and I was dying to try it out -- it cuts like buttah!
I was going for simple elegance on this one, which is a little hard b/c I'm not exactly an elegant girl. The ribbon (which is velvety) and pearls helped, but after the whole thing was assembled I realized I coulda/shoulda done some embossing. Instead, I outlined the baroque image and traced over the sentiment with a glaze pen, which doesn't show up too well in the photo but actually looks pretty cool IRL.
Comments appreciated, and TFL!
