Guest Designer Dana thinks Spring!

It's a new month and a new guest designer!  CropStop is delighted to welcome our February Guest Designer, Dana Tatar.

 Hi CropStop fans!  Dana here today sharing my first guest design team project.

 When I opened my CropStop design package several items immediately caught my eye; the Couture Creations Damask Embossing Folder, the CropStop Oval Embossing Folder Spacer and the gorgeous Tim Holtz Spring 2012 Distress Ink Set. I'm already thinking Spring, and I had a wonderful time creating this card!

The Glitz Design Dance in the Sunshine collection is a perfect match to the Spring 2012 Distress Ink set and I used that line to create this card.  I used the Couture Creations Damask Embossing Folder and the CropStop Oval Embossing Folder Spacer to add texture to a piece of patterned paper.  I then highlighted the embossed pattern with Peacock Feathers and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Inks.

The CropStop Oval Embossing Folder Spacer left a smooth area in the middle of my paper that allowed me to add a stamped image.

I added some flowers that I made with a Quickutz Flower Die, Candi Dots and a Sheer purple bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope I have inspired you.  I'll be back again next week with another project.
