When I went to make this card this afternoon I was not intending to use pink - somehow I got ambushed!!
I looked at the card colour and thought 'why not'. Then I realised that the piece of lace that I previously had used as a stencil looked good on the base colour and it just grew from there.
The sentiment is from the Layers of color latest release Happy Wishes and was stamped in the same Tsukineko Brilliance Pearlescent Orchid ink that the lace was coloured with, cut with a Spellbinders Classic Oval and embossed, then sponged with the same ink, before being mounted on a scalloped oval in a pale mauve.
Plum coloured kaiser half pearls scattered over the card finished a very quick card.
