Stained Glass Poppies

Donna Phelan back again on the Dies R Us Inspiration Blog,
sharing a very simple feminine card with you today.
 
I have used the beautiful Tutti Designs Stained Glass Poppies. 
I have kept my design clean and simple as I wanted this beautiful die to shine through!
 
 
 
 
 
 
I cut the pretty Poppies Frame from Hot Pink Foil.  Again, I always make up sheets of pretty Foiled Paper by using my Mini Minc and Toner Sheets.  It's so wonderful to keep a stash on hand.  I sponged inks on to White card stock in pinks and greens, creating my pretty background.
 
 
 

 
 
My only accents are a little bit of texture from a Swiss Dots Embossing Folder and a sheer Pink Ribbon tied into a simple knot.  I did not add anything to the inside nor did I add a sentiment, this way I can use it for any type of Happy Mail!

 
 
Just a wee bit of dimension.  No extra postage needed!
 
 
 
Here's what I used: 
 
 
 
 
 
Thanks for popping in!

Enjoy~~

  2. The Swiss dot folder and the little bit of pink ribbon are the perfect accompaniments to this beautiful stain glass poppies. So stunning to just let it shine all by itself. Great design.

  5. LOVE this!!! The Swiss dot background really makes the focal pop, but I think what I love the best is the petty pink foil you used. And then the sponged panel behind the die cut just works perfectly. This card is GENIUS!!!

  11. Beautiful. I love how you kept the background light and the pink and green are great together. The embossing folder looks great in this design and Swill dots is my all time favorite. Merry, Merry.
