If you love crafts as well as cards then today's Featured Stamper's (Betty aka Kittystamp) Gallery is a must see for you. So many wonderful paper craft projects and tutorials.
I needed a thinking of you card for a friend and browsed Betty's Gallery with that in mind. I found this delightful card and knew it would suit my needs perfectly: Hummingbird Punch Art by kittystamp at Splitcoaststampers
I kept her hummer, flowers and swirls but changed the images, color, sentiment and orientation.
To start the card, I created a bg on the Gel Plate with DOX and a stencil. To add more swirls, I dry embossed and then ran that panel back through the die machine without the ef to flatten it back out again. I only wanted the hint of swirls and not a lot of raised areas in the bg. Added the die cuts and sentiment and done. It took a bit longer than that, but not more difficult than that.
Congratulations Betty on being this week's Featured Stamper. You have a wonderful Gallery filled with so many inspiring projects. I hope you enjoy the week and all the cards made in your honor. And, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day getting inky. TFL
