~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you have arrived from the very talented Nancy Brown’s blog you are right on track.
Today I’d like to share with you a card I created using the Frosted paper pack. 




I LOVE this kit, and was excited to see how this card turned out as I pulled the color Blush into the stamping portion. 

Take a look at my card!J

I used the slate dotted washi tape in the middle of my card, and used a zip strip and some blush cardstock to create my banners.

I used the NEW Artbooking Cricut cartridge (exclusively from CTMH) for the frame on this card…this stamp set is ONLY available through our Artbooking cartridge BUNDLE!! J

 I LOVE the THREE stamp sets that are included in this Artbooking Bundle! 

 Here is a close up...did you notice how I first stamped the words in Twilight ink, and then restamped them off center a bit, in the Blush ink to give a slight shadow.

The words come from a FABULOUS stamp set (one of my favorite this Idea Book)...it comes from the Frosted Workshop on the Go CARD making kit. 

 Here is a picture of this stamp set...it is SURE to be a favorite!!
To finish off the card design, I wanted to use the beautiful, coordinating Frosted Assortment.  Take a look…

I chose to use 2 of the flowers, and then added our small sparkle flourishes to give it a sparkling touch.

    Your card is beautiful! I like how you used just the frame part from the Artbooking stamp.
