TLC728, CC725 Happy in the Pink

Photo Details

Poster: cdimick

TLC728: faux pressed flowers. I used this week's color challenge to make the TLC challenge. I stamped and punched Petite Petals flowers and added them to my leafy vines stamp (I don't have Blushing Bride card stock so inked white cs with my ink pad). After assembling them together, I embossed the panel with the Sizzix swirl embossing folder.

I added a silver mirror panel strip down the side and put the panel on a Night of Navy card base. I die cut three of the happy sentiment and stacked them.

Thanks for looking!

You make beautiful cards with that leafy vine. It looks super in white on the soft pink, and the navy flowers look very stylish and fashionable.

Super cool technique, Catherine. I love the flowers and vine in these colors. This is wonderfully one and very eye-catching. Hugz

The embossed panel is so pretty, and I love the pop from the navy petals and the silver mirror sentiment. A wonderful mix of both challenges!
