Yeah! It's Thursday and time for Create with Connie and Mary Challenge. We have a beautiful color combination for you to try this week! Aren't those soft colors SO pretty?
And here is my card using the Stampin' Up! Bordering on Romance stamp set from the new Occasions Mini. Wow…I love this set even more than I thought I would!
My Technique Class is getting a sneak peak of a technique that we'll be doing next week…see the curved border of flowers? There is an easy way to do that!
I started with a base of Blushing Bride cardstock and layered on the Pool Party pattern from Attic Boutique Designer Paper (also new in the Occasions Mini). I added the bottom portion of Whisper White and trimmed it with the cutting blade from the Cutter Kit. I added the Oval Frame Embossing Folder from Blushing Bride that I cut around. I stamped the flowers with Black Stazon on Whisper White and watercolored with my AquaPainter and markers. It is popped up on the Oval with Stampin' Dimensionals. I stamped Imagine from Loving Thoughts stamp set in Black Stazon on Pool Party Cardstock and added it to the front. I also added three little pearls under the greeting and in the center of the flowers.
I love the soft look of this card! Hope you do, too! Make sure to check out the rest of the Create with Connie and Mary Challenge Team this week…they all NAILED this color combo!
