Beautiful Bunch

Just a quick post today of a card I made last week while on holidays.  I started back to work on Monday after two weeks off over the Christmas and New Year period so I have not had a lot of time to play in my craft room (working seriously cramps my stamping time).

The new Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper is so pretty and I have used one of the sheets to make a one sheet wonder.  I have never done this before and it was a bit of a challenge to design the cards and cut the paper to get the most out of it.  I managed to get 12 cards with a colour scheme of Pool Party and Whisper White.

I am sharing one of the cards that I made using the Lovely Lace Embossing Folder on the background and a flower that I made using the stamp sets Beautiful Bunch, Flower Shop and Petite Petals.  The flower images were stamped on Whisper White using Versamark and Silver Embossed.  The petals were then coloured using Pool Party ink and an Aquapainter.  Once the flowers had dried I punched them out with the matching punches.   The petals were shaped using a bone folder and then layered together with dimensionals.  An Iced Rhinestone was added for the flower centre.


Close up of the flower, it finished the card perfectly.


Thank you for visiting
