Recently I participated in a Control Freak swap using some of the new products that demonstrators could order early from the new catalog. I pulled together a few of my favorite products and came up with this card.
This card features the Abstract Impressions bundle. I used the Springtime Impressions thinlits from the bundle to cut out the two flowers layered on top of each other next to the sentiment. I added one of the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls to the center of the flowers and attached it to the sentiment using a dimensional. I used the largest die from the thinlit set to cut out the group of flowers in Tranquil Tide card stock. The die cut piece was really large, so I cut it down smaller and attached it behind the sentiment pointing towards the top left corner of the card.
I absolutely love the new Share What You Love designer series paper (DSP), so I decided to use it on my card. It's difficult to see in the photo, but the large flowers on the DSP have a beautiful shimmer to them. It's so pretty in real life. The Mint Macaron layer is embossed with the Layered Leaves embossing folder. The shapes of the leaves from the embossing folder coordinate beautifully with the DSP.
For the inside of the card, I added a layer of Mint Macaron on top of the Tranquil Tide card base so I'm not writing on a dark colored card stock. I also added a small strip of DSP so that it coordinates with the front of the card. I haven't stamped much lately so I was really pleased with how this card turned out. I hope my fellow swap participants enjoyed them as well.
I only used one image from the stamp set, but you will definitely be seeing me use this stamp set a lot more. If you'd like to purchase any of these items I used, simply click on the pictures below and they'll be added to your cart. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
