I love playing with the "Fabulous Florets" set. I wish it had a punch or die to go with it though. I had seen a card on the net that just caught my eye so I made my interpretation of it. I didn't want to make it exactly like the one I found because of the ribbon and other factors. You can see the original card here. I really liked the "En Francais" background and the "Hello Doily". Plus I liked the flower but I did change it a lot.
For my card I used the following:
Fabulous Florets
Hello Doily
En Francais
Simply Sketched
Cherry Cobbler
Smoky Slate
Black StazOn
Always Artichoke
White embossing powder
I did stamp off when doing the background. I wanted the words to be extremely light.
I had originally stamped the green part using Wild Wasabi but it was just too light for the flowers so since I had already cut it out I just colored it in with the Always Artichoke marker I wasn't going to cut that piece out again, it was the worst to cut out because of all the thin pieces.
The words are from the "Simply Sketched" set and I used the oval punch and oval scalloped punch. That piece was set in place using Dimensionals. I am wanting to make another card using that same background but maybe different flowers and different colors too. It was a fun card to make except for all the cutting. Which I learned was called "fussy cutting." Fussy is right!!! LOL
Thank you SO much for visiting today,
