This is for the Limited Supply Challenge 201 where we were to use our favorite supplies within certain limitations:
The swan stamp has been one of my favorites since I bought it at least a year ago. It often sits on my desk—I just never managed to actually stamp with it. I looked back through my favorite sketches and this one jumped out. I used metallic shimmer CS because it is absolutely my favorite. The heft and shimmer are both so appealing.
I made two cards because cutting the triangle layers was easiest if I bisected a square diagonally and then bisected those triangles as well to end up with four. With the two on which the stripes run vertically I varied the corners and layers for the focal image because it needed more oomph.
