Hello!

Welcome back for another card featuring the Lil’ Inker Designs Sweet Celebration stamp set. I’ve created a floral arrangement – one of my favorite things to do over the glittered heart using the coordinating Sweet Celebration dies.

I’ve done layered stamping using a lot of different Catherine Pooler Inks.  I used the coordinating dies to cut all the pieces apart to start on the other components of the card.

The Catherine Pooler colors I used are:  Grape Crush, Pixie Dust, Sweet Sixteen, It’s a Girl, Be Mine, Peppermint Scrub, Aquatini, Skylight, Garden Party, Eucalyptus, Limoncello.

I die cut the heart using gold glitter cardstock and lightly ink-sponged the top card layer using Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide ink to add some color.  I adhered the gold glitter heart and decided at this point to cut this panel with a smaller rounded rectangle die so I knew the space I had to work with for the floral arrangement.  I began adhering first the leaves to create the floral spray, then layered the floral images on top – adding foam tape to a few of them for some dimension.

At first, I wanted to emboss the sentiment in gold over some vellum, but having done that, I changed my mind and stamped directly on the card and embossed to do a black sentiment instead-I’m glad it fit and didn’t destroy the card!  It was risky business!

A few dew drops by Pretty Pink Posh finishes my top layer.  For the card base, I decided to cut a mat using the largest Stitched Rounded Rectangles die out of some Stampin’ Up Bermuda Bay cardstock.  The top card panel is adhered to the mat with foam tape and the entire finished layered adhered to a white card base with rounded corners.

That’s a wrap!  Thanks for stopping by today!

XOXO,
