Lets get on with the peeking!

Today is a beautiful decorative elegant image that you will just love called Medallion Motif.
Medallion Motif Graphic
This bold image could easily be the focus of your project or make a great background.  
First, I apologize for the poor lighting.  I had a light bulb burn out and I just couldn’t get a decent shot of this last night in the light box.

I stamped the medallion on Flourishes Classic White card stock, cut it in half, and colored it with Copics.  I stamped the dotted circle and sentiment and cut it out with a Spellbinders Standard Circles large die and popped it up in the center.  All of the paper is from the new MME Rosy paper pad.   I used three buttons from the MME Rosy button collection that matches and strung them on bakers twine before I wrapped it around the cardstock three times.   The crochet lace is May Arts Light Celery Crochet trim.  The colors are a bit richer irl…sorry you can’t see that, but you can see some gorgeous samples from the rest of the team below!

What a creative use of this stamp. I often try to think of ways to use larger stamps so they don't take over the whole card and this is a perfect solution.
