Established Elegance

Hi Stampers

The Big Shot Class is over and as promised, here is the recipe for the Established Elegance Card & 3D projects:

Isn't this card beautiful?  It's from page 125 of the 2011/2012 Idea Book & Catalog.  I basically cased it but made a couple of changes to make it my own.  Though it doesn't look to be part of Shelli's collection, to me it does scream "Shelli!"

The images are from the Established Elegance Stamp Brush Set.  The 10-piece Established Elegance Stamp Brush Set is perfect for adding a vintage flair to your designs in the form of focal images or subtle elements.

I embossed the front of the card using the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder and used Rich Razzleberry 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon (retired) in lieu of the Certain Celery 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon.  Instead of sewing on the Chantilly 1/2" Crochet Trim (as shown in the catalog), I used Sticky Strip to attached it to the card.  The scallop circle was made using First Edition Specialty Designer Series Paper and Scallop Circle Bigz Die

The gift card holder was made using the Petite Pockets Bigz XL Die.  Use this adorable pocket to enclose small, thoughtful gifts and delightful surprises!  Like the card, I embossed it using the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. 

If you notice, the top of the flap has a 1/8" depth – I added an extra score line.  Just in case I wanted to add a candy bar instead of a gift card!   I used brads from the Vintage Trinkets and Linen Thread for the closure.

Thanks for stopping by today
