The starting point for my card was a Certainly Celery flower that I'd made, and not yet used. After consulting my trusty Stampin' Up! Color Coach, I decided to pair Certainly Celery with Marina Mist, using some white on my card as Tania did. It's only now that I've photographed the card, that I see I stamped the sentiment a bit crooked - oh well, it adds to the handmade charm, don't you think?!
Here's my version of Tania's card:
Stamps: En Francais, Always Elegant, Happiest Birthday Wishes
Card: Marina Mist, Whisper White, Certainly Celery
Ink: Certainly Celery stampin' pad, Whisper White craft stampin' pad
Other: Top Note die, sponge daubers, Marina Mist Scallop Dots ribbon, Certainly Celery taffeta ribbon, Subtles glimmer brad, Fancy Flower punch, 5-Petal Flower punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Eyelet border punch, sticky strip, mini glue dots
A beautiful card and lovely CASE of Tania's. I really like the colour change. Thanks for playing at Just Add Ink this week Christine. ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks for popping by my blog Christine! I thought I'd return the favour.
ReplyDeleteYour card is lovely and a lot truer to Tania's than my effort!
Just noticed too how close we live. I am in Lilydale. What do you know??
Mmm...blue and green - perfect!!! I love your flower and I agree with the sentiment being a tad crooked - it confirms to the receiver that 'it ain't no "made-in-China" shop bought card'!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card! I love the colour combination, and the stamping on the Top Note is so elegant.
ReplyDeleteHaving not seen Tania's card before, I have to say I love the colour combo, so me! You have done a brilliant case of it Christine, I love your touch with the dual coloured bow. Marina mist looks great with the Certainly Celery, good old colour coach. I don't think I have any Marina Mist but I love that shade of blue, must get some.
ReplyDeleteChristine, Your flower is divine. Colours work quite well, too I think. Wouldn't have thought to put them together...
ReplyDeleteChristine I love the muted colour palette you have used in this CASE of Tania's gorgeous card. Your flower is just lovely and is set off perfectly by that gorgous blingy brad. Thanks for taking the time to play along with us at JAI this week.
ReplyDeleteMy my my, I adore this! Love the colour combo you chose to go with, love the flower - of course! You've done such a beautiful job of CASEing Tania.

ReplyDeleteA gorgeous Tania case, wow those colours are really beautiful, the brad and ribbon are just perfect. xxx
ReplyDeleteJust lovely Christine. Your celery flower is stunning and its ruffled softness suits the gentle colours you chose. I wouldn't have even noticed the sentiment was crooked to be honest!!

Gorgeous card, Christine. This is a really elegant colour combo and love the design as well.
