Bye Bye Petal Prints…
…but only in my workshops! This is one Stampin’ Up set that will not leave me. It’s been my favorite since it was first available. Although I “heart” the solid images used in a vintage/shabby way, I thought I’d try a more modern look with the outline image. (Is “modern” the right word? lol)
I love this color combo of Cameo Coral and Tempting Turquoise. It’s so bright! I first stamped the flower outline on the Cameo card with Cameo ink. The dotted paper is from the Petals & Paisleys Designer Series Paper pack. I matted the sentiment first onto Turquiose, then Cameo, tied the turquiose ribbon (offsetting the knot to the right a bit) and adhered the assembled piece to the card. The flowers are stamped on Whisper White, watercolored with Cameo in the center and a very light Turquoise on the petals, then cut out. The top flower is adhered directly onto the patterned paper. The lower flower is raised on bits of dimensionals.

Wonderfully beautiful card, Michele. I’m keeping my set too - one of my favs.
This is so sweet M!! I love the bright colors! Fabulous card!
I think I’m keeping mine too Michele! It is one of my favorites! So versatile. can’t wait to see the new catty and see what SU thinks will compare to it! Beautiful card! Love the sentiment and the fresh look of those colors.
Super cute card M! Great colors, and I just love that sentiment. Kinda how I feel about you
I won’t be giving mine up, either. I love this fresh color combo, Michele! It’s bright, but not glaring…your card is really pretty with a nice layout. I like the way a lot of the card front shows. Sweet sentiment…hmmmmm…is this retiring? I’ll have to go check.
