To a Very Special Friend

I loved this Blooms Fill-In stamp set by #Concordand9th from the second I saw it on Jennifer McGuire's blog. So creative to have the stamp surface be the background instead of the flowers. Jennifer had this post on her blog in October and I knew I could try it too: www.jennifermcguireink.com/2017/10/backgrounds.html

 

My background is Papertrey Ink's Aqua Mist, and used some random inks for the flowers: PTI's Mint Julep and New Leaf for the leaves, Altenew's peach and PTI's Summer Sunrise for the flowers. Some little dots of white Enamel Accents (I'm having so much trouble with Nuvo drops!) to finish it off.

 

I also sliced the card in a diagonal and then layered it with a piece of PTI's stamper's select white cut with one of the edgers from MFT's Stitched Basic Edges. The gorgeous sentiment is from a British stamp company called #ChocolateBaroque, in a set called Mackintosh Sentiments, stamped in Lawn Fawn Hippo, the best mid-tone gray around.

 

I need to make more cards with this set!
