Life and Love
I’m wishing everyone a long life filled with love. This card is perfect for a wedding or anniversary wish, but this sentiment goes out to everyone.
The Forever Blossoms stamp set is so lovely, filled with pretty flowers and some lovely sentiments to share your love. Today I used the the large flower image, stamped on Vellum Card Stock, and cut out with the coordinating Cherry Blossoms Dies. I stamped the flowers with Basic Grey ink on Vellum Card Stock, and coloured the image with Rococo Rose and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends. After I cut it out with the die, I snipped off the bottom of the flower stalk, to leave a shorter spray of flowers and leaves. The vellum gives such a pretty soft look.
I used the Stone 3D Embossing Folder for my backdrop on Merry Merlot card stock. If you are looking for a true stone patio type of look, my piece is upside down, but I liked the way it looked with the ridges raised, so I used it this way. Either way, the look is lovely.
The sentiment on my card is from the same set, and sends a lovely message of love to the recipient.
I finished off the card by adding some Silver Metallic Pearls to the flower centres, and some Rhinestone Basic Jewels to add a little sparkle and shine.
