Mike and Jessie





Hello Everyone!
I would like to introduce you to the newly engaged couple, Mike and Jessie. This adorable image is from InStyle Stamps Anime collection.



To "jazz" my card up, I added a little doodling around the edges of my main mat and applied Designer Rhinestones by Basic Grey. I discovered that these rhinestones are a lot easier to apply to your card or layout if you cut out the portion that you want, lift with tweezers and apply to your project. The first time I tried to use these rhinestones, I lifted the entire design with my fingers and made a huge mess! Needless to say, I have learned that it is much easier to use my tweezers!

My circular sentiment is by Stampin' Up. I punched the sentiment out with my 1" circle punch, matted it with black c/s and cut the edges with my scallop scissors.
I also added pink rhinestones in the corners and as I type, I notice that I missed a corner! Yikes!!!!

If you're interested, here are the card details.......
image, ISS (Mike and Jessie), sentiment SU (I think this sentiment is retired), c/s PTI , Bazzill and Neenah Solar White, dp DCWV, inks Copic Markers, single rhinestones, designer rhinestones, ribbon and a flower

Have an enjoyable day and thank you all so much for stopping by!

hugs

Risa
