This card will be entered into the Challenges at Altenew, June Photo Inspiration and Penny Black, Flower Power.
I used the gorgeous Beautiful Day stamp and die set from Altenew. I cut 2 peonies out from water color paper and using my ink pads I 'water colored' the blossoms using light shades of yellow. I also cut 3 sets of the leaves and stamped them in 2 different shades of green.
I added a bit of Black Sakura Glaze Pen to the flower centers, it adds gloss and texture. Sheer white ribbon topped with a lone large adhesive pearl. Several rows of adhesive pearls, tear drop adhesive rhinestones and iridescent sequins to mimic Amy's gorgeous wedding dress. The card stock base is white, layered with a piece of shimmery card stock in a blue/gray/green shade (did you get that?) and then I placed a piece of Vellum over that. If I make this card again I will add some texture to the sheet of Vellum.
Love the photo, loved the Challenge.
Thanks so much for coming by, love it when you do!
Enjoy~~
