Frosted Floral Engagement card for FMS#353

One of the staff in our office announced her engagement this morning. It's such lovely news, I just had to make her something lovely.
The Frosted Floral DSP is glossy and gorgeous and was just perfect for this card.
I love square cards and I used the layout from FMS#353. I fussy cut some of the flowers and leaves but I diecut a few sprigs from a sheet I had watercoloured earlier.


The paper is so lovely I used it to line the envelope to match. I'm not always so extravagant and often use lesser paper for the insert but this is a special person and she's worth it! The sentiment from Petal Palette reads- "some things are just meant to be- like the two of you Together ". It's not a sentiment I could use often with confidence but it's perfect for this couple.


And while I had a few scraps lying around I made another one, also 12cm x 12cm. It's good to have a stash without any sentiment.


 hope you have a creative week and remember,
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"
cheers, Liz

    This is so wonderfully soft and elegant. I love the neutral background with the bouquet of flowers and greenery. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car
