Stampin Up Bloomin' Beautiful

4:16 PM | Posted by Chris Olsen, Glowbug | | Edit Post

I needed to make a quick but elegant card for my sister in laws birthday since I am already late in sending it out (lol). This is what I came up with. I had left over paper from Stampin Up BonJour that featured Taken with teal so I used that. The paper strip is inked with Taken with Teal using the definition in the Bloomin' Beautiful . The background behind the flower is stamped using soft sky. The bee background is sponged using real mustard on so Saffron. The sides were sponged with close to cocoa to give a distressed or antique look. The flower is cut out and layered. The layers of the card are sewn. Hope she likes it.

CARD RECIPE

Stamps: Stampin up Bloomin Beautiful

Paper: Taken With Teal, SU Bonjour (retired)

Accessories: Martha Stewart Border Punch, sponge, pearl strand, rhinestones, ribbon from Michaels

Thanks for looking.
