Each of Us

by 74 comments


Hi there blog friends.  I’m bopping in very quickly to share a “different” card with you.  Here again, this is something I had sitting on the corner of my desk in the “I’m not sure how I feel about it pile.”  Often, on a day that I’m feeling spunky, I dive into that pile to come up with something.  I’ve loved this frame, so it finally made it onto a card!

I’m sharing a sentiment from Quietfire Design called Each of Us.  It’s small enough to fit right smack dab in the center.   I stamped it on acetate because I love the design on this paper and wanted it to be able to peek through.

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Quietfire Design – Each of Us
Paper: K & Co, Coredinations Pearl
Ink: Stazon
Accessories: Martha Stewart Border Punch – Doily Garden Deep, Pearls, Ribbon

Running out for errands, but I’ll be back tomorrow :-)

    Oh Becca … your cards are SO BEAUTIFUL!! My mind doesn’t think like this, but you inspire me every day. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us!!ReplyCancel

  • Peggy MaierMay 20, 2011 - 9:51 am

    SO pretty! That’s how I feel about it!ReplyCancel

    Very glad you felt spunky enough to publish this card. It’s a winner. A tad different from your usual style, but I really like it. The frames are a knock out and as usual the bow treatment is fabulous. I would not have thought those colours would complement, but they do, wonderfully. A very together card. Gosh, I enjoy your blog! Many thanks.ReplyCancel

  • ColleenB.May 20, 2011 - 10:33 am

    Beautiful! Love the framing. Everything goes so well together.
    I have that MS punch but was wondering; how in the world do you make your frames? Something that I’m not doing right cause mine sure don’t come out as lovely as yours.

  • lois skiathitisMay 20, 2011 - 10:56 am

    Sometimes we are our own worse critics. Your card is very pretty and should have moved to the I want to show this off pile. I like how you have double framed the main focal and you have embellished just so nicely. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-DReplyCancel

  • Evette K. CiampoMay 20, 2011 - 11:06 am

    You REALLY blew me away with this card honey. Wow is it amazing. My mind is not always on “creative” so it is often very difficult for me to come up with ideas…have to case alot. Sighhhh. Just want you to know I look up to u so much for fantastic ideas knowing your God given talent will help me and others to give that “creative brain” a boost!!! Thank you so much. Hugs.ReplyCancel

  • MarianMay 20, 2011 - 12:44 pm

    I love it…what border punch is that? Is it a punch around the page? IReplyCancel

  • Carol WMay 20, 2011 - 12:52 pm

    I agree, there was no need for hesitation! I love the “sandwashed” colours on this one — so peaceful.
    I’m also loving the use of the deep MS punch to create a frame — I think with a little figuring and a ruler I can use your tutorial on doing frames with border punches to achieve a similar look! (Of course, you’ve also made me want to run out and buy that punch rather than using one I already have!)ReplyCancel

  • HeatherMay 20, 2011 - 12:54 pm

    Glad you are having a “spunky” day :) Gorgeous card! Thank you for sharing :)ReplyCancel

    OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like, I like. Almost want to call you Spunky but then I am not sure what is bringing on your spunkiness feeling. I also just “finished’ a couple of cards that I had no idea what I was going to do with them. Feels good to have completed them and off my desk -YES!!!

    Gorgeous card Becca – when I first looked it reminded me of crochet lace which I love. The colours are beautiful and the sentiment is one that can be used so often and of course the bow has ‘Becca’ written all over it.tfs.
