Hello, All
Well as today is the Birthday of poet
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
I decided to make a little card.
As it turned out, I used two versions of the same card.
For version one I chose to use her famous:
How Do I love Thee? sonnet
as the insert.
But having heard about
M & M
(Materials and Method)
Cream Card
Inkylicious polymer stamp (unused item)
Foundations Dot and Dash Card
Sheet of vintage hymnal music I embossed with Tim Holtz music Texture Fade by Sizzix
Black Card
Spellbinders Fleur de Lis die
Archival Ink
Distress Inks
Versafine Ink
Vintage seam binding
Metal Heart charm
Method is quite straightforward, I think, but I am happy to answer questions.

I am entering version two into the U is for Unused Challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers
and my unused item is the Inkylicious polymer stamp.
I just noticed that the lovely Vicki Romaine is having an
Anything Goes challenge over at
The Cheerful Stamp Pad
and although I am not entering many challenges for a while I could not resist!
All The Best,
Vee xx

Beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful card Vee. The layers are fabulous and it's a brilliant image to go with the sonnet. I love your little added insert x
ReplyDeleteboth versions are gorgeous Vee - but i love the original poem - and the card front is fabulous xx
ReplyDeleteOkay, this is brilliant inside and out. Of course, I love the snarky insert! The original poem is beautiful, though. And I am so borrowing the idea of music embossing music! ;) Thanks for joining us at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for the Unused challenge!
ReplyDeleteMorning Vee, this is fabulous, love the stamp and design, loving the 'second' insert, brilliant.
