On with the Stampin' Up! Alphabet Show....
E is for En Francais
Stampin' Up! En Francais is a background stamp. I love this stamp. It's huge ! I use it quite regularly, and I'm sure you can see why.
I cased this card from Debbi - not an exact copy, but the general design. I am quite pleased with the way it turned out.
These colours are becoming favourites of mine - Pale Plum and Perfect Plum. Love them together. And I just love my butterfly punch.
The base card is Perfect Plum. I started off the card by stamping En Francais on a piece of Pale Plum card, and sponged the edges in Perfect Plum ink. On a strip of Chocolate Chip card, I stuck 3 scalloped squares (punched out of perfect Plum card and stamped with swirls).
To create the flowers I stamped little leaves (from the Darling Dots set featured yesterday), cut them out and stuck them together. I punched the large flower using the Boho Blossoms punch (it has 3 flowers), and stuck the flowers on top of the leaves.
The butterfly was punched out of Perfect Plum card, and stamped with swirls. I also stamped 2 little butterflies (from Flight of the Butterfly set) on to the En Francais background, and added purple gems.
The sentiment is from the Thank You Kindly stamp set.
Today is my youngest grandson's 14th birthday. He is such a lovely boy - growing up into a lovely young man. I'm very proud of him. He'll be around in a while to collect his presents and have some chocolate cake. (I'll be joining him in the cake eating hehe).
