Having made a scrapbook page with Betsy's Blooms and the co-ordinating paper, Floral District, I had a small pile of scraps on my table, which is how this card came about.
Gumball Green is the base colour. On the white section I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from Perfect Punches (pg120) in Rich Razzleberry. By using a marker the outline oval was masked. A few Daffodil Delight blooms and jewels later plus some scraps of stitched Daffodil Delight ribbon and voila!
A sweet little card that was made using scraps!

Blooms in focus
Hello and Happy Wednesday!
Today's card was made with a sponging technique. The large blooms were stamped with Illuminate ink and embossed with Vanilla embossing powder (pg159). Smells divine!!!
Next, Tangerine Tango, Rich Razzleberry and Rose Red ink were sponged over to give a soft focus look. The illuminate ink makes the image really shimmery. This main panel was layered onto Shimmery White card with a piece of Tangerine Tango cardstock on top.
Do you recognise the sentiment? I was thrilled when I realised that the set You Are Loved had made it into the Main Catalogue (pg 24)!! I love the images and sentiments in the set. The words Sweet Friend were stamped in Rich Razzleberry ink onto a piece of vellum. This was wrapped around the main image and glued on at the back.
To finish, a few pearls and a strip of scallop dots ribbon in Elegant Eggplant added a bit of decoration. This makes a pretty versatile card as you could vary the colours and sentiments really easily to fit most occasions.
How have you been finding the new Main catalogue? I am still learning where everything is as 205 pages is a lot to take in!!! I'm loving the zoomed in photos and gorgeous projects too. My wishlist grows every time I look....
