Stampin' Up! Beautiful Bouquet Thank You Card #GDP093

Hello, Peaches! How has your week been? So far mine's been pretty busy. My sister and her new baby, my daughter, and I went down visit some family in Chico, California. I absolutely love my family and it's always a fabulous time, full of happiness and laughs. I love catching up with them and hate to have to leave. It always leaves me wishing we had more time. Well, I better get on to today's card.

Today's card was inspired by the weekly challenge over on the Global Design Project page. This week's challenge is a color challenge, and what gorgeous colors they are!!!! Here's the weekly challenge:

For today's card, I wanted to have lots of floral accents and a few different textures. To get this look, I used the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and dies to stamp a piece of Whisper White cardstock in Lemon Lime Twist, Pool Party, and Berry Burst to create a floral patterned paper of my own design. Then I took a piece of Pool Party cardstock and heat embossed a few floral images in white. To add even more texture and interest, I took a small scrap of Berry Burst cardstock and, using Pool Party and Lemon Lime Twist re-inkers, I used my Embossing Paste and stencil to create a fun gradient pattern.

I wanted to share a helpful tip when using stencils and embossing paste. I like to tape my project to the BACK of the stencil with washi tape. That way, it stays in place on the stencil as you add your paste and the tape comes off very easy so no tearing either! I've included a picture below:

Next, I stamped my "supporting " sentiment in Lemon Lime Twist on the background of the base layer of my card in both 1st generation and 2nd generation stamping (stamp off once them stamp on your project) to add more interest. I added some silver twine and some silver enamel accents to finish it off and that's my card! Thanks so much for stopping by!
