The dsp Love Letter from Stampin' Up was one of the new toys I received last week so I just had to get in and use it for this weeks 4 Crafty Chicks sketch challenge. I've had Artistic Etchings since the new catalogue was issued but hadn't used it. For some reason, parts of this card came together well and other parts didn't. I think I'm happy with the end result. Too late now. lol
For the panel on the black punched piece I actually stamped the motif from Artistic Etchings along the dotted lines of a piece of Love Letter dsp. The main image panel background was stamped using En Francais in Riding Hood Red ink, but after I'd stamped off twice. The large oval and decorative label punch has been used for the sentiment with the butterfly out of the Sale-A-Bration set Bliss sitting on the corner. Pearls for the butterfly's flight path, along the stamped motif panel and on the main image panel are from Stampin' Up. Both sentiment and main image have been sponged using Riding Hood Red ink.
Hope you like my card and thanks for visiting.
