This card covers three challenges this week, color, using washi tape, and portion control-offsetting images.
I first used a vine patterned washi tape to make a border extending the tape beyond the edges, then mitered the corners and peeled the excess tape off, pressing corners firmly in place.
I then offset the stamped stems on cardstock.
The small background flowers are from a brushos project and diecut.
The large diecut flowers are stamped in calypso coral, the bouquet holder stamped in Peach, bow stamped in So saffron (sub. for crushed curry).
Stamped sentiment in Pear pizazz 3x for a good impression.
I glued all the diecut pieces and also offset a flower and the bow and cut excess away.
This card will go to my long time best friend who turns 60 next week.

I would have never guessed that the gorgeous vine border was washi tape! It is beautiful along with the wonderfully colored flowers! I love the card, Jeannie!
