Cuttlebug Swap Card

My LOSTie sister Tracy recently hosted a Cuttlebug swap. The only restriction was that a main part of the card be "Cuttlebugged" in some way. (You can see all of the cards here) I had a great idea and loved the card, but it really involved too much work to mass produce - we had to make 15 cards if I remember correctly. Anyway, I survived all that handle turning and here's the end result...



Cardstock is from Stampin' Up - Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue for the grass and sky, Regal Rose and Rose Red for the flowers. I bought the ric rac (stems) at Archiver's in Cedar Park. Silver brads (flower centers) are from either Spare Parts or Making Memories. I used Old Olive ink to color the torn edges of the Certainly Celery Card Stock. Sentiment is from Happy Everything by Stampin' Up. I used the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder for the "sky", and the flowers are made from the 2x2 Asterisks dies. Each flower has four layers - two large die cuts, one medium die cut, and one small die cut in alternating colors.
