Fabulous is a Frame of Mind.

Hello and welcome.  Today I want to share a pretty little card I made using a few different stamp sets from The Ton.   

I bought this beautiful Haute Wedding Dress stamp set a few weeks ago and have finally had a chance to play with it.  How fun!  It reminds me of when I was a little girl playing with paper dolls.  I stamped her image on the white card front and then stamped her again on top of some watercolor paper that I had watercolored using distress inks.  Then I cut out her dress and adhered it over the stamped image.   I paired her with one of the larger frames in the The Ton's Vintage Frames stamp set by embossing in a pretty gold.  The stamp that I used for the background pattern is actually a teeny little stamp from The Ton's Mini Wild Florals stamp set.  I did some second generation stamping inside the frame to give the illusion of a mirror, reflecting the pattern on the opposite wall.

I thought this sentiment from My Favorite Things Tickled Pink stamp set really went well on this card.  You'll be seeing this combination of stamp sets from me again because I think there are a few other sentiments on this stamp set that will work great with this Haute Wedding Dress.    

I even added some tiny details by stamping and embossing a little necklace using a stamp from The Ton's Holiday Flourish stamp set.  I used a gold glitter gel pen to fill in between the embossed dots and I also used the pen for her little earring.  I used Copic markers to color her skin and hair.

Before I go I'm excited to let you know  StampNation is gearing up for an awesome event called Inspiration Nation.  Each quarter we have a special online event for StampNation members.  This time it's a whole plethora of inspiration boards that have been put together by our Dream Team designers to inspire and challenge our members to a full week of card making fun!  If you're not a member yet there's still time to join in.
