'Make a Medallion'- Sale-a-bration stamp set!

This is a beautiful stamp set!  It is a Sale-a-bration choice, that is available only until March 31st, 2017!  AND it can be yours for free as one of the choices you get to make when you place a $50 product order!!  CONTACT ME to find out more information on how you can get this stamp set!

This pretty card is one that everyone joining me for my March monthly classes got to make!!  It is a fun door fold card!  I think that the Lace Doily behind the circle medallion just really makes it so elegant.

This 'Make a Medallion' set is a 2 step stamp set.  This is where you stamp one image first & then layer another image over the top of it.  Do you see the 2 different shades of Watermelon Wonder ink on the stamped Medallion here?

How did I do it?  This technique is called- Shadow Stamping-
  •  I stamped the pointed edge medallion image first using Watermelon Wonder ink.  
  • I then inked the circle ended medallion into my Watermelon Wonder ink & stamped it off onto my grid paper
  • I then lined it up with the pointed medallion & stamped it over the top of the darker pointed edge medallion image!  
See how I attached the front piece of Watermelon Wonder card stock to the left front flap only, using dimensionals.  This is what the card looks like from a top image as I'm starting to open it up.  See how both sides fold out- making a door fold card.
This is what it looks like when it is opened all the way up!
This is just such a pretty card!!  

Notice how I added a 1" Circle Punch to the center of the medallion, plus ribbon & a tag made using the Classic Label punch.

It was a busy day with the boys!!  I burnt the midnight oil cutting card stock....

I'm off to go pick up the boys this morning.  I'll take the twins to pre-school & spend my day with Trey.  Later this afternoon Deke & I will go set up tables/chairs & things for tomorrows big stamp class.  We'll then come home & spend our night cutting card stock & making all of the food!  WOO HOO!!! 

Gotta run.....
I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!
