Stampin Up Label Love and Artisan Punch with Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

Hello and welcome to my blog today.  I like to keep some premade backgrounds in my stash and I ran across this embossed card.  I thought it would be a perfect compliment for the current Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.  

Here is this week's sketch. It is so versatile.

I stamped and embossed the sentiment.  Then I punched it with the coordinating punch.  I used pop dots to allow for room to loop my fiber under it.  I distressed the top of the embossed background with some copper ink to highlight a "happy".

Here's a close up of my sentiment.  My banner is on a thick paper with specks of glitter inside.  I chose the embossing powder to match the flecks. I finished the card off with copper fiber and stars.

Ingredients:

Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder

Stampin Up Label Love stamp (age about 10 years)

Stampin Up Artisan Label Punch

Brillance Cosmic Copper ink

Ranger Embossing Tinsel: Copper

Stampin Up Sizzix Banners Framelits

Stampin Up Elements: Stars

Stampin Up Copper fiber

4 Crafty Chicks Sympathy with Triple Mat Challenge #354

Today is another marks my second week as guest designer at 4 Crafty Chicks.  This week's challenge is #354 Sympathy with Triple Mat challenge.  This is only the second time I have made a triple mat card.  I decided to change up the traditional look and create some different sizes.  I also took a cue from some pinterest ideas and embossed part of the layers.

I thought this Our Daily Bread Designs stamp and die duo set was a very good investment and I have used it many times.

Ingredients:

SEI stamp sets:  Juliette & Bridgeport (7 years old)
Quick Quotes Windsong 105 paper
