Hello again! Welcome back! It's time for Day 2 of The Craft's Meow April 2012 Release Previews. Today the team is featuring Inspired by Audrey from Karen Baker.
This set has a lot of beautiful sentiments and intricate images that I think you'll love. The sentiments are a combination of script and type. I love that. Here's my project for today.
I stamped Heirloom Patterns to make a background for my main label. I don't know why, but it just made me think of Audrey. I stamped the main label image from Inspired by Audrey, and hand cut it. Then I punched some butterflies and adhered them onto the label with glue dots. Pearls also seemed very Audrey...so I added several of them.
I stamped this sentiment under the lace and border that I punched with a Martha Stewart edge punch. Then I thought, something was missing. So I made another border below it by stamping this image repeatedly along the bottom. I added more pearls in the center to balance things out.
That's all for me today. The other TCM girls have more inspiration for you, so head on over to their blogs and leave some love. I'll be back again tomorrow for more previews. Thanks for visiting today! See you again tomorrow! :)
