1-2-3 Recreate

I love all things black and white. Add a swirl of dots and I swoon. Scraps and pieces of dramatic velvet damask, sparkly bits of black glitter, add stripes and complete with a heat embossed fussy cut butterfly......tada... 


 I had to recreate it on navy with white, heat embossed inchies...
( the thanks you/gift stamps I got with an online order) sweet, but not as neat. I need to slow down and repeat the steps for heat embossing...starting with using a dryer sheet or static pillow to avoid misplaced powder. I remember after I stamp it with Versa Mark. Good thing paper has two sides. Yet still I forget step 1.


 Kraft and black suggests drama and interest. I think next I'll try kraft and white. Here I used a different swirl from the collection by Inkadinkado. I like them all but the tall one is my favorite.

I hope you like my trio inspired by this card I made and posted last Saturday.  Maybe I'll complete a set of 6 as a gift package. Which one draws your eye? 










That all for now. Hug your loved ones just a little bit tighter and give thanks for the opportunity. Don't let the tragedy's squash your joy.

Be well and craft on! ~ Carole
