I am seriously addicted to the combination of Mint Macaron and Soft Seafoam, this time with a little Petal Pink and Grapefruit Grove, gorgeous!
I have used the new 'Share What You Love' stampset, I used the large background stamp to add whisper white to the soft seafoam cardstock square. I stamped it 3 times making sure it was in pretty much the same place each time but not being too fussy about it. The white doesn't show up massively but it does help to make the pink of the flowers stand out against the green background.
I needed to let the white dry out for a while so went ahead and stamped the sentiment and cut this square and the petal pink squares to layer the soft seafoam pieces on to.
Once I was happy the white ink had dried, I stamped the green flower stem outline, then I used the smallest of the solid flower stamps to add pink to the petals. I stamped in the centre and then slightly to the left and right of each flower. This gives good coverage and means a little more colour is applied to the centre of the flowers. The stamp still picked up a little of the white ink so I gave it a wipe off EVERY time before I reinked with petal pink.
I love the new 'nature's twine' and used grapefruit grove which compliments the petal pink beautifully. I have a single hole punch which punches a really small hole, it is perfect to create a little recess on either side of the square helping the twine sit nicely. This square is stuck onto the petal pink layer with mini dimensionals. A few mint macaron and petal pink sequins add a little sparkle.
I hope you like my card and would love to know what you think.
