POOL PARTY, BUTTERFLIES AND PEARLS FOR STB #11

This week is "feminine" birthday card week at Seize the Birthday - and here's the sketch to use as a basis for our card:



 
 
I had dyed some of Stampin' Up!'s vanilla Flower Trim, using Pool Party ink, so decided to create a monochromatic card, with touches of Very Vanilla.  I find that Pool Party ink comes up a bit 'greener' than the cardstock. 
 
 
 
 

Stamps: Made for You
Card: Pool Party Core'dinations, Very Vanilla
Ink: Pool Party stampin' pad, Versamark inkpad
Other: Framed Tulips embossing folder, Fancy Fan embossing folder, Pool Party embossing powder, Modern Label punch, Basic Pearls, Artisan Embellishment kit, Flower Trim, Beautiful Wings embosslits, glue dots, liquid multipurpose glue, sanding block

  9. Christine, what a pretty take on this sketch. Fantastic idea to use the Framed Tulips embossing folder and that lace (so gorgeous, right?). The Flower Trim flowers are lovely with the pearls, and I've found the same thing with ink definitely having a greener hue than the paper, but they still look nice.

    So sorry you were ill, hope you are on the mend now!
