I posted my patriotic ODBD project for the last challenge, so when sat down to make something for the current red, white & blue challenge my mind was a blank. I saw my PTI medallion cards on the table--such a fun technique--may as well do another one! I used 2 of my newest ODBD stamp sets: Three Butterflies & Let Us Begin. I inked the small end of the image in Memento Love Letter & Teal Zeal. Stickles was added to the butterflies, the corners of the panel were trimmed & the edges were inked. I cut 4 corners using Spellbinders Parisian Motifs & inked them with Teal Zeal. The panel was popped up on a slightly smaller square card. The quote is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black, matted & popped up. Different looking card, but I think it will work to go to a blogging friend with one of my RAK packages. May be a stretch, but there are dots in the flourishes & quote, so I'm entering at SSS Wednesday. Thanks so much for taking time to leave me a comment.
Love how you did this technique!
