I love this card! It's so pretty it just makes me happy! I very rarely use this many pearls on a card but then it occurred to me, why am I hoarding all these pearls! So I'm breaking them out! I have a horrible problem with hoarding DSP and some accessories, then they retire and I never use them anyway. So I'm going to use more from now on...we'll see how long that lasts :) But back to the card. I got the colors from the color coach-a fantastic tool! I probably never would have put these colors together if not for the color coach. Elegant Eggplant is a color I hardly ever use to begin with. But with Melon Mambo and Old Olive it works so well, don't you think?!!
I embossed some flowers on the bottom of the cardstock in Melon Mambo embossing powder to give a little bit of texture and dimension. The pearls that frame the flowers just add so much and before I added them I had my doubts about this card. It just wasn't looking right to me. Add a few pearls and ta-da MAGIC it was perfect!!! I just love this card! So pretty!!! Supplies:
Stamp Sets: Love and Care, Best Dad Ever
Cardstock: Elegant Eggplant, Melon Mambo, Whisper White
Ink: Elegant Eggplant, Old Olive, and VersaMark Pads, Melon Mambo Marker
Accessories: Color Spritzer, Pearls, Melon Mambo EP, Heat Tool, Old Olive Ribbon, Dimensionals
Thanks for looking, see you soon!!!
