Hello, Doily

Hello Doily embossed in white on Pale Plum, shaded with Perfect Plum ink, butterfly is from Memory Box. I cut a plum backing for it by hand. Sentiment is from Everyday Elegance. A case of Janic Melton, today's Featured Stamper on SCS.

Warm Winter Window

This is in honor of my Queen for the Day friend Judy (jaydekay on SCS).
Memory Box window and bird cage die cuts, Martha Stewart bird punch, Cuttlebug ef, Lovely as a Tree stamp set by SU and branch die by SU, with some Dazzling Diamonds "snow". To make the wood look of the window I used my ink pads, swiping them on the cardstock going all in the same direction. First I used Sahara Sand, then Dusty Durango, finished with Soft Suede. So easy!
