I made this card for my beautiful cousin who is battling breast cancer for the 2nd time. Thankfully, she is doing really well.
I love this Elzybells Flower Girl stamp because it is so versatile and can be used for so many occasions. She is stamped with Memento black ink and coloured with Prismas and Gamsol, and I added Kindyglitz clear sparkle to her bow, flower petals and on the top & bottom of her dress. The ovals are diecut with Nesties. The rose pink cs base has been run thru the CB using the Bloom Dots ef. Isn't this dp pretty? I wish I had bought more than 1 sheet!! The mustard cs has been punched with the Fiskars Lace Border punch (I love this punch!!). The sentiment is stamped using Versacolor Opera pink and embossed with clear ep, then diecut with the smallest of the Spellbinders Labels Trio. I ran Opera pink around the edges of the sentiment before attaching to the mustard cs. Both the sentiment and the girl are popped up on 1mm mounts. The Flowers are by Prima, and I added a Kaisercraft Latte Pearl to the centre, and then added the same color (only smaller!) pearls to the centre of the Girl's flowers and on the Sentiment.
Thanks for having a peek :-)
