My Designs
Okay, confession...I really struggle to cut my florals! This has become obvious to me the longer I have created floral cards. It looks fantastic on other designers work, but I see a gorgeous floral like this one and I just can not bring myself to do it. I am working on this, as I truly believe it looks so creative. Anyway, back to my first design. I can honestly say, this is one of my own favourite cards of all time. Because I am allergic to cutting florals, I had to make a square card for this beauty. To be able to colour an image, which I did with the co-ordinating stencils in the kit with lilac and grey hues, and dry emboss it with the matching 3D embossing folder is a big WOW!!! I got so excited as I have never done this before.
I added the large glittered cardstock sentiment right across the middle just to see it, but not take away from the beautiful floral. I just love it!
So, I felt it was a real challenge to take these photos. It looks amazing in real life, but I feel I could not quite get the dimension to come through. I love white on white and wanted to just add a faint hint of colour. Hopefully you can see the effects? I added a matching gift tag and CUT...yes, I said CUT the floral. Maybe because it was white and I hadn't spent a while colouring it in it was easier to cut? Anyway, from little acorns etc etc.
