I started off with these great embellishments from K & Company. They are from a line called Life's Little Occasions that I found at my local Joanns. Lots of different sets of cute stuff. I picked up several in different themes.
I knew I wanted it to say something nice along with the word dentist. So, I pulled out my trusty SP & Company Mix & Match sets. "You Are A" is from the Friend set and Wonderful is from the Family set. They were stamped using some Whisper White Craft ink from Stampin' Up. I thought I was pretty clever to use the sticker as part of a sentiment so now it reads "You are a Wonderful Dentist."
For the dental tool embellishment I had lots of fun making my own paper designs. The green layer was just plain cardstock that I stamped with my Stampin' Up Dot Dot Dot stamp using Versamark, then I embossed with my Stamp N Stuff embossing powder in Kaliedascope - which is basically clear with a little sparkle. I rounded the edges with 1/4 inch setting on my corner chomper.
For the layer of blue behind it I sponged a piece of vellum with some Soft Sky Stampin' Up ink. I added a plain layer of vellum behind it, because if I stuck it straight onto the Kraft color it would darken too much. I also rounded those corners on a 1/4 inch setting.
I rounded all 4 corners of the main part of the card on a 1/2 inch setting using my Corner Chomper. I love that I can punch through multiple layers with ease using it. I finished off with some stitching lines done with my Sakura gel pen.
Thanks so much for visiting!

What a fun card. Dentist could be substituted for so many different things. Well the tools would have to be changed as well.
Hope your dentist enjoyed his/her card.
