Would you like to create an elegant stamped card with the Paper Doily and Fresh Vintage? I think this was my favorite card I received while swapping at the Stampin’ Up! Leadership Conference and I don’t even know who made it. It is simply elegant!

I love the color choices with the green on green. The flower from the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set is beautiful as the centerpiece.
Have you tried the Paper Doily Large Sizzlits Die yet? Its not for the “speedy stamper” but the effect is worth the effort! The slowest part, I have found, is cleaning off the Die itself after running it through the Big Shot. There are lots of little places that the card stock can get caught in. I use the Paper-Piercing Tool to get those out. Some people have tried packing tape and other ideas on the Die itself. I have heard mixed results about that but I will keep you posted if I find something great that works. Please comment below on what you try!
The Paper Doily itself comes out well if you use a extra piece of card stock as a shim. Any extra pieces of card stock still in that will come out easily by rolling the finished card stock paper doily over the edge of a table or poking them out with the Paper Piercing Tool. I know…..extra work…..but look at that result!
