Last chance to CASE the Sale-a-bration Catalogue until the new one comes out later in the year.
I've chosen the image in this picture on the left hand side Pg 6, changing it from a box into a standard card.
I've trimmed a piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the fill of the hydrangea from Hydrangea Haven randomly in Highland Heather. I then used the smaller petal image so that I didn't have to worry about masking off the leaves and using Gorgeous Grape ink stamped over the top of the Highland Heather. I really like the randomness of the effect of the background with the shading already done for you with the way the stamp is cut. This has been placed onto a base card of Pretty Peacock.
Leaves have been diecut from Pretty Peacock cardstock with the Hydrangea Dies and trimmed off the branch to pop in place.
The greeting from Happy Thoughts has been stamped in Gorgeous Grape onto Whisper White and diecut with a Tasteful Labels die and adhered to Hydrangea Hill DSP. I've attached this on an angle using Stampin' Dimensionals and added a box of Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.
To finish I've added some of the clear Flowers for Every Season Gems.
Pretty Peacock is another colour I've been quite fond of, don't forget it retires this year - in fact soon!

Oh the background stamping is so lovely! And the combination of the purples and peacock is amazing!! What a gorgeous card.
ReplyDeleteGreat CASE, Sandra. I love the colour combo you have used. I had forgotten about PP retiring - must have been trying to forget, because it is a great colour and I'll miss it. Beautiful background stamping and I love the layers of the tags.
ReplyDeleteLovely card, Sandra and what a great colour combo with Pretty Peacock. Making your own backgrounds is so rewarding!
