Today is the Featured Stamper at SCS is Nichole aka Butterfly Ears!!! Huge congrats to Nichole!!! :) I was able to play straight away today and as soon as I saw her Be_Stampin'B's Challenge #22 card I knew exactly what I wanted to do!!! (Don't you LOVE it when that happens!!!)I started with a base of dark green bazzill and layered with yellow and white. Around the edge of the white I used the Victorian Pierceabilities to pierce a pattern and then attached some Olive Satin Ribbon across the middle. I then stamped the Sparrow from the soon to be released He Watches Me set from Our Daily Bread Designs in Jet Black Stazon and coloured with markers and a blender pen. Across the bottom of the image I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set and then cut it out with Label 1 Nestabilites and matted with a square pierce of dark green bazzill and popped up on foam tape. To finish I added a bow (made using my Bow Easy and topped with a yellow button care of my friend Michelle) and then added Lemon Kaisercraft Pearls to the pierced border.

I can't believe you spent so much time piercing the card. I hope you didn't have to start over at any point ofthe process. It really adds a delicate touch.
