COUNTRY FLOWERS
ANOTHER hard choice this week…why did I pick such hard themes? I finally narrowed down my choice to Mediterranean Blooms DSP! And, although I love the oranges and lemon prints…the blue and white tiles really catch my eye, too! I went with a monochromatic look on today’s card using the blues!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Boho Blue cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 1/4 x 5-1/2 strip of Mediterranean Blooms small grid print was added to the left side. The larger 2-1/2 x 5-1/2 Mediterranean Blooms DSP was added next to it on the left. (I really like this mixture of DSP!)
- The circle was cut from Basic White cardstock with the Spotlight on Nature Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The pail and Flower Market images from Country Flowers were stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Boho Blue cardstock and cut with the Country Flowers Dies.
- The flower bunch was stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Basic White and colored with Light Balmy Blue, Light Boho Blue and Old Olive Combo Stampin’ Blends. It was also cut with the Country Flowers Dies. Both were added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Best Friend Ever was stamped with Night of Navy Ink on Boho Blue cardstock hand hand-cut, then added to the left side of the circle.
- A trio of blue Tinsel Gems Three Pack were added to the background.
