Hi Friends! I finally had just a little time to play with some of my new Pre-Order Goodies!
Since I didn't have the new In Colors Inks yet (they weren't in the warehouse in time for pre-order!), I decided to use Mango Melody and Pretty Peacock on this one and loved the combination. It was certainly a color combination I would never have thought of.
Here's what I came up with for a pretty quick card.
I don't really have any idea what made me pair Pretty Peacock with Mango Melody but I really love it! Do you know what else I LOVE ?? .... it's the gorgeous Old World Paper 3D Embossing folder!!! Such texture that folder gives to the background! I know this will be a favorite and get a LOT of use! For the sunflower, here's what I did that I would not do next time. I stamped the Sunflower with Mango Melody Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock. That was silly because then I had to color it in with my Blends. The next time I will definitely stamp onto colored cardstock and save the step of coloring. I did the same with the leaves... so I'll know better next time! I love the look of adding the adhesive towards the center of the flower and leaving the die cut petals pulled out from the flower.. it really gives it such a pretty look! This is just the first of many cards.. I'll learn as I go!
Thanks for stopping by! Blessings, Tina
