What a beautiful colour combination for CI#176.
This is such a lovely fresh colour palette, I had a lot of fun putting this card together.
I wanted to use the Textured Floral stampset as it has been sitting on my shelf a teensy bit neglected. It was perfect to use with only one colour of flower. Petunia Pop is bright and breezy and all 5 In Colours are available in the 2024-2026 12 x 12 specialty Glimmer paper which was a lovely lift for the flower centres.The Granny Apple Green leaves add a brightness and I used the olive glimmer paper (from the Berry Burst, Old Olive and White Glimmer Paper )to add some sparkle. It was nice to use just the one stampset and Textured Floral dies for this project - although the label die for the sentiment is from a retired set. I am not always great at cutting straight strips so this die gets me out of trouble sometimes.
I embossed the Basic Beige background using the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder and splattered a little bit of gold ink on this piece. I don't have a lot of black card at the moment ( How does that happen?) but I do have plenty of black and white DSP so that worked well for a mat layer. The black and very vanilla large check ribbon is such a terrific addition to your craft stash, it adds a big presence to your card. Here I cut it down the middle to give 2 narrow pieces which made a lovely loopy bow
You can never have too many thankyou cards, and this is a beautiful sentiment, which is also in the Textured Floral set.
