Blessings Of Home

Our first Online Global Retreat used the Blessing of Home Suite as the focus bundle. I fell in love with the stamps and dies then, and I still love them, so today I’m celebrating them again with some of our new In Colours, and other new products.

The new In Colours were introduced in May with the new annual catalogue, so I guess they are not really new anymore, but I love them and I’m still playing with them a lot. This card shows off the pretty Orchid Oasis In Colour. I stamped on the Pearlescent Specialty Paper, so my flowers have some really pretty shimmer. As this paper is an off-white colour, I used Very Vanilla Thick cardstock for the card base, and Very Vanilla for my sentiment banner. My Orchid Oasis cardstock backdrop is embossed with the Pretty Flowers embossing folder. Some In Colour Matte Decorative Dots finish off this card.

For this card I stamped the large flower image with Starry Sky ink. I then used a Blender Pen to pull some of the colour from the centre of the petals out towards the edges of the flowers and give the image some shading. This card is made with one of the Tea Boutique Cards. They are so pretty and come in all the new In Colours. The sentiment is stamped on a die cut from the Potted Succulents Dies. I used some of the Starry Sky Matte Decorative Dots on this card.
