JAI #209: JUST ADD LAYERS

This week at Just Add Ink, Delys has laid down the challenge to "just add layers" to your card or other papercraft project.

I love to add layers to my cards ("one layer", and "clean and simple", are terms that terrify me!).  I stayed fairly conservative with my sample for this week's challenge, though, as it had to be posted - and I wanted it to reach the recipient in reasonable condition!

Using the beautiful Afternoon Picnic Designer Series Paper, I was able to add extra dimension to the pattern already printed in the paper, by cutting out and adhering extra roses.  Dazzling Details adds a bit more 'pretty' to the flowers.




The sentiment has been layered up on stampin' dimensionals.




 
Stamps: Label Love
Card: Wisteria Wonder, Very Vanilla
DSP: Afternoon Picnic and Pear Pizzazz Patterns Designer Series Papers

  3. Wisteria and Pear are so pretty together, this is a lovely piece of the dp that you chose to use. The idea of cutting out the flowers in the paper, mounting them and adding sparkle is a wonderful idea, and looks beautiful! A lovely card, Christine!
