I made this card before I went on vacation; it was for my friend who just placed an order! It was fun just to “play”….no sketch, no color challenge, just fooling around with stamps, ink, paper and tools!! Back to the basics!!
My tag is a panel from the Fan Fair DP on which I randomly stamped some collage-style images. I added some butterflies from Papillon Potpourri as well as a ribbon & brad embellishment. The embossed scallop on the side was made with the Borders Scoring Plate, which I trimmed by hand. The card base was embossed halfway with the Honeycomb EF and stamped with the single doily stamp called Gossamer Lace, and a flourish from Creative Elements:
Thanks for visiting today…if you have any questions, shoot me an email!
Cassidy actually asked to play with stamps when she arrived on Monday morning! I pulled out some little foam Christmas stamps from a long time ago, an old ink pad and she went to work:
If she knows what to do at 2 1/2, imagine how she’ll be in a couple of years! Now if I could just make sure she puts the rubber side down on the ink pad!!!

Beautiful card! Love all of the elements and textures. And Cassidy is going to be a great stamping buddy once she masters a few little "details"!!!
Very pretty. Love the colors and your tag panel.
Cassidy is such a cutie.
LOVE, love, love the card!! Your style is amazing, LeAnne! Cassidy sure is growing up fast. She is too cute!!!
Sigh..........you know what I think of this card........nobody does s/s/s like you do! Gorgeous~! One of my all time favorites!
You are a "Collage Stamping Guru"- love how you combine everything & make it look so good!
Beautiful LeAnne. All the elements work so well together. Looks like Cassidy will be in your downline one day!
Love, love, love your card. I've a idea to help Cassidy use the right side. Glue an embellishment on the top and she can't use that side in the ink.
BEATIFUL...just added this into my favorites!!!
Such a pretty card !! Love the pics of Cassidy stamping!!
Oh boy, nobody does collage quite like you. I wish I could pull this off. Pinning for sure!
Great card! I'm not usually a collage person but I really like this one. Cute pix of Cassidy- look out, you may be handing over a lot of your SU stash soon. ;)
Love!!!! love this card dear LeAnne. what a great way to frame the images like that. And the colours work so well. I am so excited to play along with this challenge. Thanks for the inspiration.
