This week it is time for the Rubber DT to share creations to go along with this month's  Whimsy Challenge; and this time it is:

Stitch It Real or Faux

 Here is my card using NEW Summer Pony by Crissy Armstrong. I have decided to go all soft in my coloring and I think it came out nice. I have also uded Whimsy Romance papers by Michele R. The sentiment stamped on vellum paper is from Lovely Spring Sliders 2. I also had fun adding and layering some of the NEW Vintage Fancy Corners.

Here is a closer look at my colored image and where you can get a better view of the layered corners:0)

Here is my card :
I have stamped Summertime Blooms from Monika Martinson on kraft cardstock, then heat embossed it with white powder. I have colored this image using Metalic Gelatos from Faber-Castell. This was fun and I liked the shimmery result. I also used the Gelatos directly on the Vintage Fancy Corners misted with water and then stamped on each corner of the kraft. Colors used: Metalic-Blueberry, Melon, Mint.  I have also used *NEW Vintage Harmony it is hiding a bit but I was so pleased that it matched perfectly with the flowers.
Here are the links to the items I have used:
Mini Lace Doily Corner 1 Die,
