Friendship Floral

Hello everyone,

Today's post is a very pretty friend card.


The card base is Recollections White.  The printed paper is of unknown origin layered on Stampin' Up Almost Amethyst and Summer Sun.  The images are Stampin' Up Botanical Blooms stamped in Altenew Citrus Burst, Maple Yellow, Minty Mint, and Sweet Leaf, and Stampin' Up Almost Amethyst ad Lavender Lace on Recollections White.  The image panel is layered on more Summer Sun.  The sentiment is also Stampin' up Botanical Blooms stamped in Altenew Jet Black on Recollections White and layered on more Lavender Lace.  The card is highlighted with Recollections adhesive faux pearls.

I really love this fresh spring friendship card.  I was thrilled to have images that coordinated so well with the printed paper.  The biggest challenge was going through my ink stash to find colours that would work just as well.  I played with a bunch of colours before finding just the right light and dark shades.  I used a simple sentiment, placed in the design 'sweet spot'.  Adding pearls to the flower centers are just icing on the cake!

I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.
