Here are the details on how I made my card...
I started by cutting a piece of Pure Luxury White cardstock, using my Labels One Nestabilities die. Then, while still in the die, I sponged Certainly Celery (SU).
Then I sponged some Pretty In Pink. Sorry about the blurry photo.
Added some Regal Rose ink.
Stamped my verse from Elegant Verses.
Then stamped some foliage and flowers from Tropical Flowers, using Regal Rose and Certainly Celery.
To make the larger background panel, I stamped a flower from Bug Me Anytime, using Regal Rose ink.
Then I stamped another flower from Bug Me Anytime, this time using Pretty in Pink ink.
I used my Perfectly Paisley Cuttlebug Folder to emboss the vertical panel and added some white Sateen Flowers, with self adhesive pearl centers.
Thanks for visiting. Tomorrow I'll be showcasing another of my guest designers. Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteOh Theresa, your artwork is always inspiring as well as breathtaking. Thanks so much for the tutorials, it helps so much to see the different steps. Question: did you sponge the paisley layer first (which is what I think) or after embossing it? Thanks!
