Hey there! I used two background stamps for today's card, Definitely Dahlia and Hardwood:
Truth: after I made this one I didn't like it AT ALL. I almost threw it away, but laid it aside while I worked on another card. I came back to it a few hours later with "fresh eyes", and then I liked it!
I inked the raised side of the Woodgrain folder before embossing the Soft Suede card stock. I stamped the Dahlia once with Old Olive and twice with Melon Mambo. After hand-cutting the Old Olive and one of the Melon Mambo, I punched the second Melon Mambo with the 7/8" Scallop Circle punch and once with the Bitty Butterfly punch.
The greeting is my favorite from All Boxed Up!
Inside I used another sentiment from All Boxed Up.
I'm still working on convention swaps, Christmas in July class, three special birthday cards and a special baby shower car, all due BEFORE I go to convention on the 22nd. Oh, and did I mention we are having a yard sale this weekend too? Eeek!
