    How timely for today’s Ways to Use It Challenge (WT353)!  We are to pick a favorite and base our card on it. When I was looking thru the FS gallery for Peggy this last Sunday, I came across a couple of her cards Venetian Dress and Easter Dresses.  The funny thing is, her Easter Dresses were a case of some Easter Dresses I made! It reminded me how much I liked these little dresses, so this is a case of a case, lol.

    I had to hunt, but the dress pattern for this is still available here: Dress Pattern. The images I used here are all from Our Daily Bread designs. After printing and cutting the card into the dress pattern, I stamped the front w/ the honeycomb bg. For the apron, I used vellum and stamped the clover in the lower right corner.

    With a stylus, I debossed the vellum for a little depth then used markers on the backside. The belt was die cut and I added a green band underneath. For the bottom of the apron, the sleeves and the collar, I used little pieces I die cut using the Spellbinders labels. The card fits in an A2 (4.25 x 5.50) envelope.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Congrats to Claudia, today’s Featured Stamper (FS229) at Splitcoast! I chose Forever Together to case. I kept the general layout, sentiment as focal point, and monochromatic color. I changed the images, added some inking to age mine and rotated the layout. I was also inspired by Amelia Tunic from yesterday’s IC challenge.

    All images are Our Daily Bread designs. I’m just loving this crochet bg image. For my card, I wanted to stay monochromatic but I also wanted it to show up. So I white embossed it on white vellum and inked the edges w/ the antique linen ink. When I attached to the front of my 4.25 x 5.5 ivory card, it was even more visible. I noticed the vellum warped a little at the top, but vellum can tend to stretch when embossed and to me, it looks more like real lace.

    The sentiment was stamped on white, cut w/ an ODBD custom die label one, and aged the edges. The butterfly was also white embossed on vellum and die cut w/ a backing vanilla piece of paper (another ODBD die).

    On some leftover embossed crochet bg, I used a double border punch and attached this over my white frame then attached the sentiment on top. I added the Jolee’s flower and some ivory and white punched branches.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    I’m using one of the wonderful, moving sentiments and frame from the Eternity set along with the beautiful Tulip Corners. I’ve always loved this quote and I still get chills every time I read it. The frames and tulips were all gold embossed. The frame was embossed twice on vanilla colored vellum with the quote stamped inside one with black ink then both were die cut using 2 sizes of the exclusive ODBD/Spellbinders matching Eternity Labels One die. I layered the smaller vellum label (the one with the quote) on top of a piece of white to brighten it a bit, then used a gold leaf pen to edge the labels.

    [TIP: if you stamp an image like this quote on vellum and it doesn’t appear as dark as you’d like, stamp it again on white paper. Line up and attach the vellum image on top of the white image and trim the white so the edges don’t stick out. Instantly brighter with darker type!]

    The tulips were all colored using markers and a water brush and cut out. After arranging my many layers (yes there are 5 not counting the card front or quote labels), I attached the quote and arranged the tulips around it.  The finished card measures 6.5 x 5 (A6).
