Rose Tree
Honeysuckle
Wisteria
I have been working with the stamps and this is one of my designs......
I have used stamps from the Wisteria and Rose plates. I love the way the butterfly seems to be hovering and the shape of the flower lends itself to a vertical sentiment. The Grand Nestabilities Labels 4 are great for making shaped cards. If this is a new technique for you check out this link from way back in March 2009!
To make this card you would need:
Cardstock: A4 white texture
Decorative paper: CB Essence of Italy
Nestabilities: Grand labels 4 (3# and 4#)
Mega rectangle (3#)
CB Stamps: Wisteria Lane, Rose Tree
CB Sentiment: Birthday words
Inkpads : DI dusty concord
Clear embossing powder
Ribbon, foam pads
Thank you all for your support whilst I've been away - I'm hoping to get back to a more structured blogging and catching up with visits to your blogs. Although we are now way into January and it's a little late to wish you a NHY, but I'm going to say it anyway - I hope you are all well and that 2012 will be a good, health and prosperous year for you.
Back soon.

good to see you back blogging - love the stamps you have used for this card
Good to 'see' you - these stamps are gorgeous and I'm so tempted. Love what you did with some of them. Take care
Love this card Ikki, the colour is my favourite. The vertical sentiment goes so well with that elegant flower, Judith xx
So good to see your post on my reader list! I hope 2012 holds all kinds of good things in your life. Beautiful card! Great stamp sets!
Nice to see you back - this is a lovely card
Lovely card and I love the colour. Stamps look really good. xxx
Great to see you back Ikki - love these new stamps....the honeysuckle is definitely on my wishlist. You did make me laugh......and I probably shouldn't point it out.............but the thought of a butterfly hoovering gave me the giggles!!!!! Lol
ah Ikki do love those stamps - and how you have used them too! and so agree with the sentiment vertically, thanks for sharing, Shaz in oz.x
Take care of yourself - reactions to meds can take some time to recover from. I love the way you have used that particular shape for your card as it really picks up the shape of that central flower beautifully. I've been ogling your Nature Tag/Brown creation in the newsletter for I too love using tone on tone techniques. As your example above shows heat embossing really makes a huge difference & I love the way it picks up the shiny glittery parts of your ribbon here.

Great to see you back Ikki. Love what you've done with these stamps. The embossing on the main image looks gorgeous. Must admit I have hankerings for the honeysuckle set.
