Just Fabulous

Happy Saturday Crafty Friends!

Today is my day to post on the Pink By Design blog!

Here is my card that I created using a PBD background, image, and sentiment stamp.


Details:
* Finished card is 3 1/4 x 6 1/2 inches.
* Paint chip, cut off the side with the names. I used the Behr brand because there is plenty of room to stamp on once you cut off the paint names. I matted this with black cardstock.
* Stamp the PBD "Sewing" background stamp using black ink. I used Staz-on and allowed it to dry completely (a heat gun also helps to
speed up this step, just not too close or the paint chip can bend).
* Stamp the dress form from the PBD "Sew Lovely" image set, and allow to dry.
* For the sentiment I used an ekSuccess punch and stamped "Just Fabulous" from the PBD " Material Girl" sentiement set.
* The final touch was adding gems using my i-Rock (a must-have for bling lovers!).

I hope you get a chance to stop by the hardware store and pick up some paint chips and give this a try. I've got a stack of them to make some more, and the best part is that they are free!

Thanks for stopping by!
