CI#123 Vintage Bottle of pink sequins with flowers

Welcome back for colour INKspiration again and a gorgeous colour combination to play with. I was tempted by the inspo photo to pull out the wonderful tropical plant Artistically Inked set,  but the bottle punch was at hand and it's just so cute I went with that.

I've used a Shaded Spruce wash, a jar full of Blushing Bride sequins and Effervescent Elements, some Metallic Woven Ribbon and some watercolour 100 diecut floral elements using the Flowers of Home Dies. Add to this some stamped and fussy cut greenery sprigs from the Bottled Happiness set. Set a piece of Layering Designs vellum as your background layer and add half a foil frame from the Fabulous Frames dies and finish it off with some In Colour Opal Rounds and there you have it.

When you elements are cut from Watercolour Paper or Shimmer Cardstock you can paint them up with variegated colours as you go.

The elements are fun, and your card will not be too bulky to post. You will need to wrap it in some lightweight card to protect it in the envelope - I use a strip cut lengthways from a manilla folder and wrap it around the entire card. 

In Australia your card still fits in the Large Letter slot so it only costs 2 stamps instead of 1.
