(fThis card is for SplitCoastStampers ""Ways To Use It Challenge" #234 - to use sand or to sand something.
I started with a piece of textured DCWV green cardstock. I embossed it with my new Victoria Cuttlebug folder. Then I sanded it with a Stampin' Up! sanding block. I thought it looked 'elegant' so I had to do the rest of the card elegant, too:) I stamped the sentiment (from Stampin' Up!'s Elegant Greetings) with Adirondack Bottle Green ink, then cut it out with a scalloped Petite Oval Nestability. I placed a plain Petite Oval Nestability over it and sponged on the inside of the oval, then sponged lightly around the edge of the scallops. The white border across the middle of the card is embossed with a border folder from Organic Flourish set, and I used my Scor-Pal to score double lines on each side of the embossed border. I brayered over the embossing with the same Bottle Green ink. I added eyelets to the scalloped sentiment (I was going to add ribbon, but it didn't work out.) and popped it up with Pop Dots.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
