Softly Floral Dear Friend

#stampinup   #saleabration2016   Today I’m sharing another card made by my BFF, Lynn Birus, for our annual Sale-a-Bration stamp camp. I know you’ll agree that this card is gorgeous.

Lynn stamped the flower from the “Birthday Blooms” stamp set in Whisper White Craft Stampin’ Ink onto Shimmery White Card Stock and heat embossed it using her Heat Tool and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder. Next, she watercolored the flower, leaves, and background using Aqua Painters and Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, and Soft Sky Ink.  She stamped the “dear friend” sentiment in Basic Black Archival Ink.


Lynn adhered the Shimmery White panel to a Calypso Coral mat and then used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the design to a Soft Sky card base.


For her finishing touches, Lynn added some iridescent sequins (left over from the “Watercolor Wishes” all-inclusive kit) using the Fine-Tip Glue Pen, tied on a length of Whisper White Baker’s Twine, and added some shimmer with the NEW! Wink of Stella Clear Glimmer Pen. So pretty!!
