Hello!

Hello all! Today is a cheery little card made my new favourite set: Everything Eleanor.

To make the card base a piece of Wisteria Wonder cardstock was folded in half and then cut using the scalloped square die in the Big Shot, ensuring that the folded edge was kept in line with the last scallop so the folded edge was kept in tact.

A piece of Whisper White was had the swirl stamped in Certainly Celery. To give background flowers, the flower image was stamped in Perfect Plum ink and then stamped lightly on a scrap of paper before stamping onto the Whisper White piece. This gives a more faded look.

A few flowers were stamped in Wisteria Wonder and then cut out by hand. At first I thought this would take ages but actually the nice curvy lines mean the flowers were a doodle to cut out. These flowers were raised up on Dimensionals and then finished with a couple of rhinestones.

Did you guess where the sentiment was from? It's Pennant Parade! I wanted a cute little word and this one fit the bill perfectly when stamped in Perfect Plum.
