Flower Fest Card

This is the card we're going to be making this week during Tuesday's stampin' happy hour.  I cased this from Kristi Jones.  It uses both heat embossing and the crayon resist technique.  This is a new stamp set (Flower Fest) from the Summer Mini Catalog, and I'm having a blast with it.  Expect to see this one again.  Also from the new catalog are three embossing colors, Tangerine Tango, Wild Wasabi, and Melon Mambo.  For this card I used two embossing colors to help create the butterfly.

Materials:
Card Stock: Certainly Celery, Glossy White, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White
Inks: Tangerine Tango, Melon Mambo, Certainly Celery, Versa Mark
Punches: Butterfly, Decorative Label
Ribbon: Whisper White Grosgrain
Jewels: Basic Rhinestones
Emboss Powder: Melon Mambo, Wild Wasabi

Crayon Resist Technique:
Stamp the images on Glossy White card stock.  Outline using a white crayon in the places you want the white to show, which will resist the ink.  Daub or sponge on your ink.  That's it!
