Bonjour Steps (Kathy Berger)




Bonjour Steps
by Kathy Berger


To make this card, I created a template and used it to fashion the card base with three steps. I then die-cut three square windows on the "stairs" using a 1.25" Single Square die from the Frantic Stamper Precision Dies set #2.

Next I decorated the inside of the card to showcase several of the newest dies from Frantic Stamper and papers from the Cherish collection by Authentique. The result is a lovely tableau celebrating Paris.

In addition to the beautiful montage of Paris landmarks, stamped using a Frantic Stamper cling-mounted Paris Montage stamp, there are three die cut squares with a Paris theme (mounted over the square windows cut in the stairs; they align perfectly by design!), a die-cut Eiffel Tower, and a lovely and delicate die-cut Bonjour. The French dies used to create the die-cuts are all from the new Frantic Stamper Precision Dies, Mix 'n Match Die Set, France. They cut exquisitely, and with so much detail. Just look at that tiny l'Arc de Triomphe!



I hope you've enjoyed my card today, and I hope you will go check out all the beautiful new Frantic Stamper dies at the Frantic Stamper store. They are made in the USA, made of 100% steel, work with all major personal die cutting machines, and are just plain fun!

'Til next time!

Smiles,
Kathy
