Spirelli Technique

Hello All! I made several cards this week with the Spirelli technique as an embellishment. The first card that I will share with you is totally away from my usual style .... so much busier than I usually make my cards.

The 3-D sticker is from the Paper Studio and it sits on the spirelli scallop. Stamp is from Stampin' Up, cut out with scallop punch. Colors are Ruby Red, Sahara Sand, Tempting Turquoise,Taken with Teal and Yo Yo Yellow. I'm interested to see if it makes an impression on anyone at the Monday Market tomorrow.

This one uses Chocolate Chip and Kraft card stock, pine cone stamp from Stampin' Up and sentiment and banner stamp from Layers of Color (sure do miss them!). I used the Cuttlebug Argyle embossing folder on the center panel and Spellbinders die to cut out the banner. I noticed after the fact that the strip of kraft on the right side is a little wider than the opposite side but, hey, that just shows it was made by hand rather than spit out by a machine; nobody likes machine spit, right????

This is the last one -- reminds me of my coloring books as a kid -- more times than not, Barbie's clothes were always pink and purple!!

The lace border is a felt stick on and I've used faux stick-on pearls (pink, purple and white) around the scalloped edges of the Spirelli circle. "Wish Big" is from Stampin' Up and "It's Your birthday" on the inside of the card is Gina K. Designs. Tools I used were Spellbinders dies and a Stampin' Up border scallop punch.

I also dug into my stash of older cards this week and made some changes on them to bring them up to snuff; got twelve of them ready for Monday Market.

Hope you all had a blessed weekend.
