(angelique papers, say it in pearls and pretty window packaging, florals: prima; deco tape: martha stewart; rhinestones: recollections; sticker: crate paper; vintage doily; ink: colorbox; adhesives: staples brand gluetape runner, 3m foam tape, sewing machine)
one of my favorite things about prima is that they are constantly thinking about good design on a quantum level, which means that even their *PACKAGING* makes its way into my projects! the inner round panel of this card is made from the pretty pale blue glossy cardstock from some lovely prima resin windows (i used one on this card) and the green flowery card out of a packet of pearl embellishments. and really, if i hadn't told you that, would you have GUESSED those bits were completely FREE??!
i used what WAS the current palette at color throwdown (#219) when i started, forgetting that it would change by the time i got this posted! that doesn't takeaway from its loveliness or its helpfulness, however!
and now the thing i reallllllly have to do is stop making christmas cards, and start writing out and mailing all of the lovely ones i've already finished at ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ this year! anyone for some hot cocoa??!? ♥
Your card is so delightful and fun and I love the pretty soft colours.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love it when you can reuse the packaging? I know I do :) I love how you've edged the tree & layers - such a 'little' touch that makes everything POP. And those flowers are so detailed. Love them!!
ReplyDeletePlease may can I have marshmallow in mine?

ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Lauren! I love the white blooms, the pearl flourishes and of course, that doily... beautiful! Lovely color combination, too!
ReplyDeleteVery very pretty, L! The doily is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI need to get that tree die cut. I love it on every single card you make with it. Its almost as good as the deer one, but just slightly less so.. I like the color combo too.
