Flower Thanks So Much!

Flower Thanks So Much!

Made this card for Chris Dayton who is my shipping buddy for my Paper Trey Ink Onesie dies. However, after almost three (3) weeks of waiting, the dies is yet to arrive and I suspect it has lost in transition. :( Nevertheless, I am grateful for Chris' assistance.

Mojo Monday 253

This card layout is inspirational from Mojo Monday 253 sketch/challenge as shown above.

On top of the yellow card base, a 'Thank You' pattern paper from my stash is used as the background. A red ribbon with gold lining is tied to the pattern paper before attaching it to the card base. An ivory card stock is used and green faux stitching are added to it before attach onto the pattern paper. Another embossed red card stock is trimmed square and black faux stitching are added to it before attach onto the ivory card stock.

Close-up : The flower

The flower is stamped on a white circle as well as some pattern papers. The image of the flower on the pattern papers are trimmed accordingly and paper pieced onto the white circle. The edge of the circle is distressed before attaching onto a pink scallop circle. Some yellow gems are added to the pollen of the flower to give some dimension and sparkle.

Close-up : Sentiment

As for the sentiment, it is stamped on a white card stock before trimming the fish tail. It is then distressed as well. Both the sentiment and scallop circle are attached onto the card as in the sketch.

Dimension : 10.16cm x 15.24cm or 4" x 6"
