Simple & Pretty - it seems as though I'm always talking about how cards that are simple and pretty are my favorite. A little texture, a little shine, and soft colors just make me oh so happy!
Today's card started with a Whip Cream panel that was embossed with the Mystic Impressions Embossing Folder. This folder is one of the few that live at the front of my storage - pretty much constantly. I just love the flowing flowers. I added a strip across the front of River Stone card stock. Then I wrapped some of the gorgeous Rustic Rose ribbon around , and tied a bow. I matted that on more River Stone card stock.
The sentiment was heat embossed onto Tin Pail card stock using Rose Gold (ummm....duh? I seem to have forgotten other embossing powders exist!). I die cut that out with one of the Treat Label dies, and then, using the same die, cut two Rustic Rose pieces. I cut those piece in half - one vertically, and one horizontally, and adhered them to the back of the sentiment piece. This creates a slightly smaller mat than the next size die would have. The sentiment panel was then adhered using foam squares.
A few pearls, and a little fiddling with the bow to make sure it was in "just" the right spot, and the card was finished. The white, grays, and pink tone are so pretty together! And I love that the sentiment is versatile. It can be used for so many thing. Who, and why, would you send a card like this to?
