My card is for this week's Tea Party Challenge for Amanda, using this week's beautiful colours. Amanda likes flowers, particularly hydrangeas, and the colour blue. I had to substitute 2 of the colours and opted for dessert with the leaves.
I first sponged the white c/s with Marina Blue & Coastal Cabana ink. Then I stamped the leaves. Stamped, then fussy cut, the florets in the Marina Mist. Added the white sentiment panel and stamped the sentiment in Shaded Spruce. Adhered the florets to the c/s and then I sprayed it all with the gold glimmer mist. Once dry, I sponged a bit of Coastal Cabana on each of the flowers and added the pearls.
For the tea party there was an extra challenge - I love embellishing a card with glimmer mist.
TFL!

I love what you have done here Sue! Having the vines stamped in the background so these lovely flowers are front and center is oh-so pretty. You sure made great use of this week's colors too. But it is the shimmer you added to this card that makes it fantastic. Amanda is going to love this beautiful card you made for her. ~Karen.

Such a very pretty floral card. You are so brave using the glimmer mist - guess I have to practice more with it and also take it outside to spray - he he.

Ooh, excellent choice of embellishments! Who doesn't love some extra shimmer and shine? What a beauty this is, Sue! I have this set and never use it. This was a perfect time to use it and that wonderful sentiment.
