Happy Pink Saturday everyone. Thank you Beverly for hosting Pink Saturdays and giving me yet another good reason to create something Pink. Please stop by and see Beverly and all of her amazing Pinks! For today's card I used a Gecko Galz Pixie Dust image, covered in Sticklles. The beautiful heart was a try at wax embossing. I used Lindsay's Stamp Stuff gorgeous Decorative Doily SVG, I cut it out of Freezer Paper which has a wax backing. I ironed it onto the card stock and when I peeled it up there was not enough wax to do the technique. Never fail, I laid it back in place, ironed it down again and used Tim Holtz distress ink. I then removed my stencil and Voila! And the stencil can be used again. The borders are a Lettering Delights SVG, so is the pinwheel. Now that I am spoiled with the envelope liners, my cards feel naked without! I used Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Plain Envie liner and used a punch to make the beautiful border. You do not need a cutter for this set, Lindsay has a printable version so you can print and cut the plain liner then use the punch of your choice to finish it off. Well, thanks for looking. ~Diane
