Eeeep! Love it! The alignment was a bit tricky, but I drew a light pencil line down the side of the card and stamped so the tiniest circle and the biggest circle both hit the line, flipping the stamp for each repetition. The different sizes of bling are scattered randomly (although the two closest to the sentiment were placed to draw the eye there), and there are five of them...a nice, odd number for design. The two corners are rounded to bring the whole design together and because it looked weird to have pointy corners on the right.
Take a look at your stash and see if any little stamps might make an interesting border like this one!

ReplyDeleteThis is so cool! You really rocked this card, Susan :)
ReplyDeleteLove this, Susan! I need to pull out my Grunge Me set and give it some love…now.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, you are one clever girl. (I wish I had just the tiniest portion of your creativity.) Ideas like this cause me to look at my stamps in a whole different way. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant :)
ReplyDeleteI love this card. Great use of a small stamp for the border and the color is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! I love what you have been stamping with this set.
ReplyDeleteYet another example of creative stamping! Thanks for keeping it in my head that I need to always see past the obvious when looking at my stamps. I try to do that with my punches, too and it really does make creating even more fun.
ReplyDeleteSusan, What a great design. I love it. You've done some awesome things with this set! Papertrey Ink needs to be knocking on your door!
ReplyDeleteSusan, You never stop amazing me with your creativity using stamp sets I would never look at twice and then end up just adding another to my wish list! Naturally it helps when you use my favourite colours! I love your work! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this card! I wouldn't have thought to use a stamp in this way...
ReplyDeleteThanks for helping to stretch me and my creative efforts!
