Happy National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day. Yes, it is. And this, well this is a very sad attempt at a swiss cheese interpretation but I think, not a bad looking card.
As you might have guessed from the heading - I used some Stampin' UP! wheels here.......and many punches.
On So Saffron CS I wheeled the Leaves a la Carte on the inside in Old Olive and Speckled was wheeled on the outside in More Mustard. Then I punched out 1/2", 3/4", and 1" circles from the front of the card. It looked a little plain, so I punched donuts, or frames if you want to call them that, out of Old Olive CS. It still looked a little plain so I punched some more 1/2" circles out of More Mustard CS and edged them with Chocolate Chip ink. I also edged the More Mustard scallop with Choc. Chip. The flower was put together using all those colors and the leaves are Old Olive ovals (say that 3 times fast!) folded in half first and then sent throught the paper crimper. The ribbons are 5/8" Choc. Chip. grosgrain and Old Olive Twill.
The sentiment in the upper right is from the BoHo Backgrounds stamp set - and to be honest, it's there because it's covering a smudge!
Now, if you're going to make a card like this the only drawback is that you can only write on the upper half of the inside unless you want to see your writing through the punched holes.
Awesome...fabulous! Love your design and the donuts framing the circles. This is just wonderful!
