Sweet Stampin' - white on white

**My second post for today - if you popped in for the Sugar Nellie hop, click here or scroll down**

I'm back with my DT card for Sweet Stampin', where our challenge this week is 'white on white' or WoW.  We have 2 sponsors for this week - Letraset and our lovely teamie Natali's store Iva Nova Chest, and also our monthly sponsor Joanna Sheen.

Now, do you remember me saying the other day, how happy I was on all my teams and how I loved every minute in the craft room... well that doesn't apply to this card lol!  I love WoW cards when other people make them, but I really am hopeless at them.


Items Used
Pearlised card - Papermill Direct
Kanban tree stamp from the 'Spring Garden' set, embossed in Detail Silver
Sentiment stamp from the 'Just To Say' set - LOTV
Cuttlebug embossing folder called Jules Jewels (possibly!)
Memory Box Whimsical Flourish die - MCH
Memory Box Macarena Corner die - MCH
Mesh butterfly - MCH
Nestabilities ovals & Go Kreate circle dies

Hope you're all enjoying your weekend so far.  It's been hot in Sheffield - too hot for me, I just end up really sleepy!  Feels like it's cooling off a bit now though, so hopefully I can manage not to nod off.  Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)

It's been lovely and warm here today too but between work and the crop I didn't see much of it! Luckily it was not too hot at the crop so we could get some work done!!

WOWZER!!! So very stunning Lisa!! Love that embossing for your white on white design!! :)

Craftdee said...

This is a gorgeous WoW card, Lisa... perhaps because "somebody else" has made it - I really struggle with making them myself, being a lover of colour is a distinct disadvantage in a WoW challenge! I love that embossing folder, I'll have to try and find it (they really are a "go to" item in a WoW challenge, aren't they?) Like I said, a beautiful, elegant card, and so appropriate for it's purpose, Donna

Debs said...

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.
Take care
