No Time To Stamp?

This started with a new pack of paper I got in the mail today — a Sultry 6 x 6 pad by Basic Grey, from Flourishes. Opening the pretty pack of paper instantly made me want to use it — so, I ran to check what the Inspiration Challenge at SCS was for today — well, wouldn’t you know it — it was all this gorgeous, printed fabric — and it sooooo resembled my new papers!!! It was meant to be!!! And I am holding true with my promise of more 10 Minute cards! Here’s the result:

How simple can it get? The only stamping is the sentiment, embossed in Vanilla. I used my gorgeous new paper (Sultry), my favorite chocolate ribbon by May Arts, my heart shaped Nestabilites by Spellbinders (which have been really getting a workout this week), and my Martha Stewart butterfly punch. Done — and in just a few minutes!!When I make a card in this style, I always start by working on a base of white paper, as it gives me a more solid base on which to wrap my ribbon around. You can see a little photo of what I do by clicking here.

This card also is a good example of the different type of dimensonal products I like to use. The panel with the designer paper is adhered to the card base with mounting tape. I used a Zot to adhere the butterfly, I used SU Dimensionals to adhere the brown heart to the pink one, and I use Pop Dots (Wal-Mart) to adhere the pink heart to the card (you need a fatter pot dot to make it set right over the velvet).

The Many Sentiments stamp set, Sultry paper, velvet ribbon and heart shaped Nestabilities are all from Flourishes.
