Fabulous Friend

Hello! Today I am sharing with you a card I made following a sketch from The Sweet Stop. When I saw this sketch I was very excited and couldn't wait to get started.


Firstly, I printed off my background papers. I am a big fan of Webster's Pages and I have purchased a number of their collections over the years. For this card I went with the Hollywood Vogue collection as I am drawn to the blues/aqua tones that it contains.


I used a floral stamp from Stampin' Up! Elements of Style. I used Baja Breeze to stamp the image and also to ink around the edges to soften the look. I then began to arrange some flowers, varying their size and tones.




To frame my sentiment, I used my favourite die at the moment, the Quinn Flourish. I stamped my sentiment, added foam tape for dimension and added a small rose.



Supplies:

Paper: Webster's Pages Hollywood Vogue Collection, Kaisercraft duck egg blue and white cardstock

Stamps: Stampin' Up! Elements of Style and Oval All

Ink: Stampin' Up! Baja Breeze

Other: Memory Box Quinn Flourish, Hooked on Craft flowers, Stampin' Up! punches, Kaisercraft mini blooms, Prima Belle Artes Aquarius, Petaloo Canterbury Roses teal.

Thanks for stopping by!
