HAPPY EASTER. Hope you have had a Blessed Resurrection Sunday.
I have a new anniversary card to share today. I made this one using some old and new products from Stampin Up and I really like how it turned out. It will be going to some really good friends for their anniversary soon.
The old is the flower, buds and leaves from the retired Paper Florist dies and the new is the Mini Corrugated EF, which I really like. I die cut the petals for the flower from Bristol smooth card and blended Worn Lipstick DOI on them. I shaped them with my stylus and glued the 6 petals together, then added the black die cut center. I also added a fancy rhinestone (Hobby Lobby) to the center for a little bling. The leaves were die cut from Old Olive card and the small leaves and bud stems from Pear Pizzazz. The buds were cut from a scrap of lt. pink card. I added the flower with foam tape and then glued the leaves around it. I also added foam tape under the small buds. I stamped the sentiment from SU Many Mates (ret.), fussy cut it and added it with foam tape.
I am adding to The Flower Challenge - use Spring Colors.
and to Triple B Challenge - Birds, Blooms, & Butterflies
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
Your corrugated background was a terrific choice for that lovely bloom! Wonderful card, JoAnn!
ReplyDeleteYeah, a corrugated e/f! How wonderful! Now I can get rid of my old crimper, which I never could get to roll the ridges straight! 😊The rest of the card is so pretty, JoAnn! It's cool that you used something old and new for an anniversary card! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteI love the way you inked the large flower, JoAnn, and the arrangement with the buds is lovely. Thanks for sharing your card with us at The Flower Challenge.
ReplyDeleteJoAnn, this is such a perfect bloom for Spring colors! I'm so loving that corrugated panel - I might have to get mine out for a spin!
