I used baker's twine, die cuts and rhinestones. Three different types of embellishments worked perfectly with our paper collections. Let me show how I created this card:

Here is my inspiration...
I used baker's twine, die cuts and rhinestones. Three different types of embellishments worked perfectly with our paper collections. Let me show how I created this card:
- Cut the base of the card.
- Cut a layer using the green side of Earth Wind Fire 106 (coming soon).
- Cut a third layer using a big scallop die cut border using the beige side of Urban Oasis 103 (coming soon).
- Cut a fourth layer using the dark blue side of Earth Wire Fire 107 (coming soon).
- Paste the second and third layer over the card base.
- Tie a few loops of baker's twine around of the fourth layer and and create a bow with the ends.
- Stamp a sentiment over a piece of the Urban Oasis 103 using Midnight Confessions PowderPuff Chalk Ink and layer this piece over a piece of Whistlin Dixie 108
- Cut a Curly Butterfly using a piece of Whistlin Dixie 108 and paste over the sentiment using glue dots.
- Finalize the decoration by adding some blue rhinestones.
Quick Quotes Ingredients:
Midnight Confessions PowderPuff Chalk Ink
Whistlin' Dixie 108
I hope I have inspired you to make something fun today. See you soon! Thanks for stopping by! Martha Lucia

Thank you so much for selecting my canvas in the Top 3. Congratulations to the other ladies too. Fabulous work from everyone :)
Yay!! So excited to see I was the winner of the challenge!! Thanks so much and congratulations to the top 3 winners!
Thank you so much for such a fun challenge! Your inspiration card is gorgeous! I am happy to join you this month. I have featured 3-D flower and butterfly sequins as my embellishments and I've used 8 in total. Thanks for the inspiration! Congrats to the winner and picks from the last challenge - beautiful work, ladies!
Thank you for the fun challenge. I have used a few die cuts (manual and machine cuts), a bit of bling, old alphabet stickers, a bit of twine you can't see in the pics and pictures of my county fair blue winning cards.
