You might need sunglasses

June 14, 2011

because the colours in this card are certainly bright.   I found an old sketch at Clean & Simple which I liked (135) and had a little “play”. 

I started with Very Vanilla card and used a plate to shape the bottom with a slight curve.  I punched a narrow piece of Daffodil Delight card using the Scallop Trim Border Punch and snipped at regular intervals making sure not to cut into the border so that I could attach it behind the Very Vanilla card.  I then attached a piece of Pacific Point card to complete the front.  I added a strip of Melon Mambo Designer Paper from the Brights Designer Series Paper Patterns Stack.  I used my Big Shot, Daffodil Delight card and the Island Floral Die to  cut one large and 1 small flower from the die.  I also punched Daffodil Delight card using the Fancy Flower Punch.  I separated each of the flowers into 2 pieces and sponged the edges with Daffodil Delight ink.  I scrunched each flower layer and then stacked them together onto a Large Clear Rhinestone Brad.  I also cut one of the leaves from the Island Floral Die using Old Olive card.  The leaves were separated, sponged using Old Olive ink, scrunched and attached behind the flower.  I used dimensionals to attach the completed flower to the front of the card.  I stamped “congratulations” from the Occasional Greetings stampset onto the card front using Pacific Point card. 

I quite like the result.  I’d love to hear what you think. 

Bye for now, Kris.
