Started by Die Cutting a Top Note Die out of Whisper White card stock using my Big Shot Machine.
Stamped the Scene stamp from the Stampin’ Up set Scenic Season using Soft Suede ink.
Sponged Soft Suede ink around the edges of the card stock.
Brayered Baja Breeze ink on a small piece of Whisper White card stock.
Using an Always Artichoke and Cherry Cobbler marker, loaded the stamp with color and the huffed my breath on it to moisten and then stamped it.
Punched the area I wanted to highlight using the Stampin’ Up Curly Label Punch.
Sponged Soft Suede ink around the edge of the punch.
Adhered the punch to the top note, lining up the images.
Stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up set Holiday Happiness using Soft Suede ink.
Added Soft Suede and Baja Breeze panels, Whisper White Ribbon and Gold Brads.
Here is the finished card measuring 4.25″ x 5.5″.
I hope this tutorial has inspired you to give this old but good technique a try.
I will be in Milton, West Virginia this weekend teaching some lovely ladies how to brayer. Ladies are you ready to get your brayer going?
Until my next post. . . . . .
Huge Hugs,
Michelle
