It's time to start another challenge over at Try it on Tuesday. This time around our theme is FLOWERS. I thought I would just put together something uber feminine that I could use to give one of my girl friends or female family members for any occasion. Lots of pastels, lots of pearls and lots of flowers!!
For the background panels I used DecoArt Antique White paint and Hero Arts Shadow ink Soft Sand. I stamped some flourishes from Inkadinkado and some flowers from Prima. The flowers were cut with Joy Crafts Flower die sets and coloured with distress ink Tattered Rose. The white roses are store bought.
The wreath die is from Memory Box and I coloured it with distress ink Shabby Shutters. The foliage sprigs are from Marianne Designs. The butterfly is from Inkadinkado and I stamped it with Soft Sand, coloured it with Tattered Rose and fussy cut it out. I splashed the finished card with some distress ink spray Tattered Rose and some DecoArt Titanium White Paint to add a little extra shabbiness.
That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. I read and appreciate every single one! If you have any questions, please let me know.

Hi, Pamellia! What a glorious creation this is! Your backgrounds are always so incredibly beautiful that they could be the entire card. Then you layer it up with the most gorgeous hand made flowers, pearls, butterflies and oooooh, I 'm swooning! The color palette, design, the texture....all exquisite! Sorry I haven't visited in a while. I've been knee deep in menu production for BMW. But I am nearly done, and rewarding myself with a little visit to my favorite blogs. Hooray!
