Finding Inspiration Friday

Very Versailles

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the end of the week and the much needed finding inspiration Friday. It's so important to put the stress of the week behind and stamping is the best way to do so. I have to tell you that the minute I put stamp to ink and then to paper, the stress melts away.

Today I'm sharing a project with you that I simply can't explain how much I am in love with the beautiful Very Versailles stamp set by Stampin" Up! It's branch is stunning! When I designed this project, I wanted to have an antique feel and boy it it here. The script stamp that I used, I repeated the stamp several times to get the soft background. Then I stamped the branch 3 times with Old Olive ink.

To add all the vintage feel, I decided to use the large branch die from the Sweet Silhouettes Die set. For the card, I simply tore off a piece of the branch to place behind the greeting. Simply add a little of the Scalloped Lace trim and the card is truly beautiful. 

I hope I have inspired you and have helped the stress of your week melt away. Once I made this card, I'm inspired to design others using this set. I just may make this a product based class in the future. It is a must have!
