Impression Obsession challenges. I was determined to get my card made in time for the Colors of Summer challenge. I looked at my Brush Tree, E7690, & saw a modern bride's bouquet on the order of the one from Pinterest. Can you see it or did my imagination get the best of me? For the background I covered a piece of cardstock with pink, purple & green Distress Paints using Gesso between colors. I white embossed the image, punched the corners & sprayed with Shimmer Spritz Frost. I mounted the focal piece to the middle of a vellum panel with rounded corners & Heart Flourish, D2145, white embossed in 2 corners. This was attached to a slightly smaller white card. The final touches are a purple bow embellished with a pearl & 3 tiny pearls added to the hearts.
I'm so happy you stopped at my blog. Let me know what you think & I'll be visiting you soon.
Absolutely bridal!! How lovely!! So many details. The vellum looks veil-like!
ReplyDeletethis is just so pretty, greta... love the way you made the vellum panel larger than the card base and the embossed corners frame up the image panel perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to start calling you Master Texture! You have such a way with velum, dry embossing and all forms of texture..and combining them all with such panache! Thank You!

ReplyDeleteWow! Such a beautiful bouquet, Greta, against a stunning background!Love the embossed corner images, pearls and the lovely bow on the flowers!
ReplyDeleteHello Greta
ReplyDeleteOh Goodness the Vellum relates a beautiful softness and gossamer look to your card, it reminds me of a delicate piece of lace. Choosing elegant tranquil Purple; a glorious complex hue that imbues a sensual feel is perfect for a matrimonial celebration.
A gorgeous card my friend.
