Fabulous Duo by myStamp Box

I have a 2 new cards today using letter stamps from myStamp Box.


I used the Mini Alpha-Small Box set to make my sentiment.

The base of the card is by K and Co which is fun to have something other than white to look at when you open the card. The green patterned paper is by Making Memories and I have dry embossed it with a Gina Marie embossing folder. {She is a friend of mine with her own store in Grand Rapids, MI and has started her own line of embossing folders. You will see many more of her folders in my future cards.}HERE is a link to Scrapbook Pal  with all her embossing folders and HERE'S Fern Leaf the one I used on this card. After I embossed the green paper I inked the edges with an ink blender and distress ink both by Ranger Industries. Then I sprayed the entire piece of green paper with water mixed with Perfect Pearls to give it that extra sparkle that you know I love. The coral polka dot patterned paper is by Papertrey Ink and the butterfly sticker embellishment is by Me and My Big Ideas. 




For my second card it's the same supplies except I didn't dry emboss or ink the green like the card above. I did add a die cut from my Cricut's Art Philosophy cartridge {size 4 inches} behind the butterfly. I love how it turned out! The die cut really makes this card stand out. I hope you will agree.

The picture with both of them together shows what you can do at the same sitting with some of the same supplies and come up with a little bit different look. Please stop by the myStamp Box Blog to see more inspiring projects using myStamp Box stamps and products.
