I found a stamp set that I have not used in some time so decided to make a background with it.

I embossed all the stamps and created a lovely background which I then added some blended distress inks in yellows, pinks and oranges.

I also found some random stamps on the desk to add some other patterns into the background. I also added in some splatters of shimmer ink. I don’t think you can see that on any of the photos but you can in real life.
I then grabbed the die cut pierced blooms flowers and decided they could be a a lovely cluster around a sentiment.

I used some ripped Kraft cardstock to create a contrast to the flowers. I then layered the background onto a layer of Kraft to frame it and wrapped some paper twine around it.

I then added a stamped sentiment which again is one of the random ones I came across whilst tidying up.
I added foam behind it to give it dimension. I then added some sparkly gems from the stash as a finishing touch.

Quite a pretty but also funky card.

Catherine, you’re card is not showing.
How strange… I’ve added the photos again … hopefully it works this time. Thanks for letting me know x
