I saw the bottom of her lovely card, and instantly thought of bella toile. I also thought of romance therefore the next thing I thought of was bloomin beautiful. I love this single flower. I think it is gorgeous!
I wanted to change the colors but keep the integrity of the card. So I changed the colors to pretty in pink, choc chip and white.
White is my base, and choc chip is my mat. I cut a piece of white at 2-1/2 x 5-1/4 then stamped bella toile in choc chip.
I then cut 1-1/2 x 5-1/4 of pretty in pink. I ran it thru the cb using a dots ef.
I then went thru my SU dsp. I knew I had a set from several years ago that featured pink and brown as the main theme. I found this piece and it went beautifully with the dots ef. The piece is 4x2-1/2 and I put it on the horizontal. I added a piece of ribbon to the center of the panel. I also centered the panel on the card.
I then stamped my image and colored it using pretty in pink, regal rose, and certain celery. I added glitter gel pen for added sparkle and added a light brown ribbon around the base of the flower.
Thanks for looking and congrats to our Queen for the Day. Thank you for the inspiration today! God Bless!
