SSNOTIME #26 Pierce It
Hi there! You have no idea how happy I am. Starting today I will be making one of the samples for Sharon Johnson's ( notimetostamp ) Stamp Simply Challenge every Friday. Thank you so much Sharon this is going to be a blast! Today's challenge is to use paper piercing on your card. You can see Sharon's gorgeous card and read about the challenge here.
For my card I stamped a flourish type stamp along the side of my card in Pretty In Pink Ink. I then went around the stamped image and poked holes. Super easy and so elegant! Julie Koerber’s also has a beautiful sample as well as a tutorial you can see it here
I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm just stunned by the absolute elegance your pierced flourish adds to this beauty! I can't believe you did it freehand. Gosh, I'd be all over the place. This is really beautiful, Dee!
