The starting point for today's card was a piece of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper, which I chose because this pack is on special for the month of October. The woodgrain and photo-realistic patterned papers in this pack have had a lot of use, but I have never created with this particular tile-patterned piece.
In my creative process, I have thrown everything but the kitchen sink at this card. I've used two stamp sets, four sets of dies, two embossing folders, and embellishments from two different packs. I had a lot of fun making this one!
I've done a few different things with the vases, from the Boho Indigo Product Medley. The largest vase/urn was stamped in Night of Navy ink, on Whisper White card. I then used Versamark ink, silver embossing powder and a heat tool, to emboss the little floral design at the top of the vase. The two smaller vases were die-cut from Night of Navy card, and embossed with the Subtle 3D embossing folder. I die-cut a leaf pattern from the middle vase, and added some little flowers - two silver-embossed, and one stamped in Night of Navy.
The Whisper White stitched circle, and the Smoky Slate sentiment strip, were embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.
Here's a close-up of the sentiment strip, on which you can better see the lovely embossed detail:
To anchor the twine bow to my card, I die-cut a Smoky Slate Ornate Frame, and a Night of Navy frame from the same die. I inserted the Night of Navy centre piece into the Smoky Slate frame, for contrast, and used a glue dot to adhere the bow.
