New SU Catty Card

A month ago Some friends on SCS decided to have a contest to guess the colors of the new SU Catalog Cover. Nobody guessed white, but we all came out winners...each of us then had to make a card for someone else in the group..I got a friednin CA and this is the card I made for her. I decided to make a true Catalog card and used my Cuttlebug stuff to make it... I did use an expired SU stamp though, and Going Grey and Baja Breeze cardstock...Loving these colors together. I used Flower Screen, which I am really liking, to emboss the face of the card. I like how it makes a little border if you center it correctly. Then I used Frills Scalloped edge on a strip of Baja Breeze I then added a yhin strip of Going Gray to accent it and trimmed it narrow. I used my 1/16" circle hand punch to punch out the center dots of the embossing and trimmed close to the edge with scissors...I want to try this with my new Scallopped edge punch when it comes next week. I stamped "friend" from an old SAB set from 2007. and then used Circle punches and Scalloped circle punch to make a flower. Lastly I used my Cuttle Bug Butterfly Die cut and embossing trio to emboss two butterflies and then I layered them to look like they were in flight

I Punched a hole with my punch and used a brad from my latest MM brad set for the head...UGH I cant remember the color but they look great with the new in colors. Several of them are close matches. I stuck one Zot small glue dotint he body area Bent the wings up and then used a few on the back to adhere them to the card. I find Zots glue dots work really well to stick the embossed pieces together.

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
