This is a great all occasion card, create the card but leave the words unstamped until you know what you want to use it for, thank you, birthday, or even sympathy. It really will work for anything.
The card starts with a base of Crisp Cantaloupe. A thin strip of Chocolate Chip has been given a nice edge using the Scallop Trim Border Punch. I then embossed it with the Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder. To create the piece with the flowers, start with Whisper White card stock. Then use your spritzers to add just a splash of color. Here is was Tangerine Tango done from a distance to get a very light splatter effect. Then the flowers from the Too Kind stamp set were inked on with Crisp Cantaloupe, Tangerine Tango, and Pistachio Pudding. I layer of Pistachio Pudding was added behind the Whisper White. "Thank You" comes from the Best of Greetings set. One of the Naturals Buttons and some Linen Thread finish the card.
This was one of the many samples that I brought home from Convention. Unfortunately, it was swapped unmarked! It was also one of the cards that we made at the After Convention Party. It you haven't tried the spritzers yet - go ahead and take the plunge. I was a little hesitant at first but love the effect. We even joked about re-decorating my office if we experienced over-spray during the party. I am excited about using the spritzers to do some super fast and easy banners and bags this fall. So check out the fall schedule and get signed up today!
