Welcome back to our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenges. We have a gorgeous flower candle arrangement to inspire you today!
TEXTURED FLORAL
My first inclination was to use the Paper Florist Dies…but then I saw Mary had used them, so I pulled out my trusty Textured Floral Bundle to use!
-
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Granny Apple Green cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Garden Green cardstock was added on top.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White was stamped with the word “smile” by using a Garden Green Stampin’ Write Marker and highlighting just that word on the image, then stamping in the lower right corner.
- The large and small flowers and stem flowers were stamped with Lemon Lolly Ink on Basic White cardstock. The leaves and flower stems were stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink on Basic White cardstock. All were cut with the Textured Floral Dies.
- Two leaf branches were cut from Garden Green cardstock.
- All were assembled on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of yellow Adhesive Backed Solid Gems were added in the background.
I tried this with Daffodil Delight first and much preferred the softer color of Lemon Lolly…what do you think? OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!
