So Sorry
Can you tell I'm really into making little 4"x4" cards lately? For some reason, I'm enjoying the square card over rectangle. Maybe later this week I'll have something other than a square card. :)
I recently got the So Sorry stamp set, and it's so beautiful. I know that sounds weird, considering the set consists only of words. But I love the scripted type style and think it's really pretty. And with lots of options for finishing that thought, it's very versatile. I chose just to stick with So Sorry, and I guess when I need to send this type of card, I'll finish the sentiment on the inside. Hopefully I won't have a need to send this for a long time, though.
The butterflies from Papillion Potpourri coordinate perfectly with the two butterfly punches that Stampin' Up! carries. I stamped them with Staz-On ink, then punched them out. The punches work great even with watercolor paper. I chose to watercolor after I punched, but you could easily do it before. I'll admit that I may have ruined this card when I spritzed ink on the sentiment. I was so upset, but after it dried, I decided to keep it. I'm on the fence about how I feel about all that brown on there...it wasn't the look I was going for! I highly recommend doing a test spray BEFORE spraying your project! At least the speckling worked in the upper right hand corner of the card!
