SU277 Bliss

Stamps: Bliss (SAB 2011).

Paper: Tangerine Tango, Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla, page from an old book.

Ink: Tangerine Tango, Cajun Craze.

Accessories: Very Vanilla ribbon, rhinestones, sponges.

Punches: Spiral, Elegant Butterfly.

Because I used a page from an old book, I wanted to strengthen the side that I was going to punch so I scored the left side at ½” then glued it to the wrong side. 

Once dry, I cut the page to 3-1/4” wide by 5” long.  Rip the top, bottom and right side about ¼”.  Sponge all edges in Tangerine Tango.  Punch straight edge with the Spiral punch. 

Stamp the bottom of the Tangerine Tango card with the flourish in Tangerine Tango ink.  Adhere the newsprint panel on an angle to the card front. 

Cut a Very Vanilla panel at 2-1/2” square.  Stamp flourish in Tangerine Tango ink towards the top and the left.  Ink Bliss with Cajun Craze and stamp at the bottom.  Sponge edges in Cajun Craze.  Mount onto a Cajun Craze panel 2-3/4” by 3-1/2” long.  Cut ribbon 4” long and tape ends to the back of the panel.

Adhere panel about ½” from right side of card.  Cut another piece of ribbon 4” long and tie a knot around previous ribbon.  Trim if necessary. 

Stamp butterfly on Very Vanilla with Cajun Craze ink.  I know the Elegant Butterfly doesn’t fit this butterfly but I used it anyways.  Sponge edges with Cajun Craze ink.  Curl the wings.  Adhere to the card.  Add rhinestones.
