Beautiful Day Florals

Good Morning!

This card will be entered into the Challenges at Altenew, Weddings, Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes! and Simon Says Work It Wednesday, August Birthstone, Peridot.

 

 

I used the Altenew stamp and die sets, Beautiful Day.  For the large blossoms and leaves I only used one ink pad on each; Crushed Curry, Pink Pirouette and Wild Wasabi.  Each blossom was stamped 5 times, each one has 4 steps, then I did the 2nd outline in the opposite color.  You can see it more on the pink blossoms, outlined in yellow.  So, if you are limited on ink pads and shades, don't fret, you can still get all of the details by using only one color.

Flowers layered on to a Spellbinders Majestic Labels 25 die cut.  Enamel Dots and Corner Punch for accents.  Each flower center has been hi-lighted with a Sakura Black Glaze Pen.

 

I popped each flower up using fun foam.  The bottom pink one has been popped up using twice the thickness, I really wanted to show a lot of dimension on this card.  A leaf and cluster of flowers are adhered to the card base too to show more depth.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

 

Enjoy~~



 



Celebrations!

My first card is for Mother's Day, which is fast approaching. This year my Mom's birthday actually falls on Mother's Day, so my daughter and I are "kidnapping" her and celebrating a "You Day"......we told her she can choose anything she would like to do all day Saturday (as Sunday, her BIG Day, we have a family Wedding Shower) and we will do it.   We'll all be on Cape Cod so the possibilities are endless.  We'll probably start the day by driving out to P'Town and seeing the sights, hot coffees in hand, a leisurely lunch at some local haunt with water view dining, and perhaps ice cream for dinner.  My Mother is all about having ice cream for ANY meal.....although I have never seen her have it for breakfast......yet.  :)  I'll report back on that afterwards!

For this card I used the Stampin' Up! set, Amazing Family.
