Sweet & Simple

Hi there

It is a very chilly, but sunny Saturday morning here in Melbourne.  There hasn't been much sun for the last week, so it is wonderful to see it.

Today I have a sweet and simple card for you.  I was playing around with the Decorative Label punch and came up with the shaped frame.  I punched twice horizontally and then putting the punch through the hole, punched vertically each side.  The resulting frame was trimmed and then embossed with the Square Lattice embossing folder.  I popped up the frame on the spotted Melon Mambo DSP that was layered on the cardstock base.   The sentiment is from the 'Your're a Gem' stamp set, punched out with the wide oval punch and also popped up on dimensionals. I've  embossed the crown from the 'Artistic Etchings' stamp set in silver for a bit of bling.  A very simple card for a girly birthday.
