I Scream, You Scream...

Here is a sneak peak at what Elsie's party is about. I love how the ice cream sundae stands alone on the white card stock and I really think the swiss dots embossing really adds to it, without taking anything away. The die cut made up with 6 layers, which is a lot for me, but it was actually a very easy design to put together. I pop-dotted the sundae, but glued the cherry stem down to the paper. I like how it really gave it a 3D look.

Engaged!

I attended an engagement party (my first!) a couple of weeks ago and made this simple card for the couple. The couple was cut out with a black sheet of paper into a silhouette, no layers! The white card stock was also cut out on my silhouette machine and then I ran it thru my cuttlebug in the swiss dots embossing card. The background paper is just some left over scrap paper I had. I really wanted to bling up the diamond with a rhinestone, but didn't have any, so I just used some crystal stickles and it turned out perfectly!
