Fancy Friday using Elements of Style and the Butterfly Bigz Die

 
I hope you are not fed up with more cards made with the Elements of Style stamp set.  This was one of the cards we made at my monthly technique class and was fairly simple to make but very effective.

First off we stamped the flower stamp in whisper white ink over the crumb cake card base and drew a line around the edge using a signo gel pen.  We then cut a flag/banner piece from a piece of patterned paper.  We stamped a gray oval using the chevron stamp from Oh Hello and cut it out using the matching oval framelits.  This was mounted in the centre of the card front and the flag/banner mounted over the top with the for you sentiment from the same set stamped in black ink.

Lastly we cut a butterfly from the Butterfly bigz die using whisper white cardstock and then stamped the flower image using basic gray ink.  FInally we looped the linen thread around to fingers approx 3/4 times, twisted it in the middle and stuck it in place with several glue dots.  Finally a Summer Starfruit Dahlias was stuck in place in the centre of the linen thread.
