The idea for this card was to create a card without using the Big Shot. When I teach classes at the library, we do two cards and inevitably, everyone ends up waiting for the Big Shot. So I decided to do one card that emphasizes embossing folders and diecuts, and another that doesn't require the use of the Big Shot at all!

Colorful Doilies

So I appear to be stuck on coloring with blender pens...I will need to snap out of it pretty soon :)

I stamped the delicate doily images in stazon black onto whisper white cardstock; colored them in with blender pen and wisteria wonder, wild wasabi, and marina mist. Matted with bashful blue and certainly celery. Banners are embossed with square lattice, chevron and fancy fan embossing folders. Added gumball green ribbon, pearls, itty bitty banner "congratulations" cut with bitty banner framelit.

This is another card using the triple layer or triple stack technique. After stacking the 3 white layers, I stamped the doilies and flowers in crumb cake, pool party, and basic gray.
