Embossed Doily

I started with a piece of vanilla cardstock and stamped the doily with versamark then heat embossed with stampendous' pink pastel EP. Brayered pumpkin pie, cherry cobbler and so saffron over card then sponged early espresso inside doily;wiped off excess from brayering. Used ticket punch on top and matted with espresso and added designer series button and espresso baker's twine; added dotted scallop ribbon border punched in pink pirouette and espresso. Stamped thanks so much from old sincere salutations on pink pirouette; punched with oval, and matted in espresso with scallop oval. Used ticket punch on top edges of espresso and white cardstock.

Just Ducky

I first stamped butterfly on the vanilla cardstock, then stamped again and punched out; adhered to top of other stamped butterfly. Cardstock is pool party, basic gray, very vanilla. Baja breeze ink and seam binding ribbon. Best wishes is from retired set sincere saluations.
