Botanical Gazette Suite

Today I am posting a 3" x 6" card featuring the Nature Walk stamp set.  I stamped the bird on textured Very Vanilla cardstock using Pacific Point Classic Ink.  I love the look of stamping on textured cardstock as it instantly looks dimensional and kind of like needlepoint. Tucked under the focal panel and tiny black strip is a scalloped ruffle I made.  Just punch a strip of paper using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch, fold it in half, scrunch it up a bit, and then glue it under the top layer.

To back the focal panel I layered in a piece of First Edition DSP.  A long flouncy bow of Very Vanilla Seam Binding adds visual weight to the left side of the card.  To the right I included a greeting from the You're a Gem stamp set and three small Basic Pearls to finish the card.
