I haven't shared this project yet; it was the bonus project many of my gals received in their Spring Retreat package. It's made with the Pleased as Punch designer paper; it was free during Sale-a-Bration earlier this year.
To create the banners I first cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" long X 3 1/2" wide. Then I made a mark at the center of the short end and cut from that mark to the opposite corner. Then I had my template!
I added lots and lots of punched pieces! I used the Umbrella punch, the Tulips punch, Daisy, Leaf, Butterfly Duo, the Small Bloom punch and the Heart Punch pack. A few of the banners are textured too. It would be fun to hang this in your craft room or on a window .

Here’s the flyer for the next 3 months. It describes each kit in detail.
What is the Black Magic technique? It’s where you start with a light neutral piece of card stock and add color with sponges or markers. Then stamp images in Versamark and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. The magic happens when you cover it completely with a water based ink (here I used Secret Sea). Then wipe off the ink that does not ‘stick’ to the heat embossed areas. True magic!
Watch my video tutorial further below to see this technique in action.
On this card I used mostly the stamp images; only the greeting die-cut is from the dies. I added a few In Color butterfly gems and the pretty Golden Glow ribbon too.
I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download it or to print it.
I made one with Golden Glow as the card base and the other as Peaceful Pine as the card base.
