I wanted to try for an elegant card. I ran my blue background through the CB with the dotted swiss ef. I chose a dp from DCWV Garden Party for my #2 panel. The white flowers on it really sparkle. I scalloped punched the edge and then scalloped punched white card stock to mat the #2 panel on.
For my #3 square, I used blue pearlescent paper (RAK from Redbugdriver....Thanks so much, Karen), rounded the corners, placed pearls and Stamped the image with Versamark and heat embossed with white ep. My #4 square was cut from the DCWV #2 panel and I rounded the edges also. I added one of my Gramy's buttons with a blue gingham brad in the middle. I think that I will go back and add a white scalloped edged mat for this.....what do you think?
I added a white prima with the blue gingham brad along with butterflies with pearls.
What do you think?
