Tiny Topiary
This is a card I did today using the tiny topiary in the Siberian Iris set by Flourishes. I love this smaller topiary image just as much as I love the large Siberian Iris image in this set. The sentiment is also from the same set. This was done for the Featured Stamper Challenge at SCS today as well, casing a card from the gallery of Kharmagirl – WOW — what a gallery to choose from - fun!!! This is her card that I cased, and here’s my version, which was simplified:
I followed the same basic layout and I used a dry embossing folder, but that’s about it. I omitted the piercing and stitches and added ribbon. Where she had the sentiment placed, I placed the main image. My topiary is colored with Copics and the ovals are cut and embossed using my new Petite Oval Nestabilities by Spellbinders. The sentiment is also on a die cut label from a new set of Shapeabilites by Spellbinders, both of which I got from Flourishes, along with the Siberian Iris stamp set, the Two Scoops pad of DP by Basic Grey and the black sheer ribbon. The Swiss Dots folder was used in the Cuttlebug to emboss the background. And I’m feeling really addicted lately to these darling black butterflies — I just couldn’t resist using them again!!! LOL!!! This card is 5.5 x 4.25″.
