Hi, You know when you have one of those days that you just need to take it easy? Well, today was one of those days, and it gave me the perfect excuse to play with the Floral Essence bundle. For inspiration, I set myself a few goals: 1. I had to try a new technique - I chose blending ink colours without leaving lines (using a sponge) 2. I had to break open and use some of the Perennial Essence DSP 3. I finally unpacked my heat gun and embossing powder, so I wanted to include embossing 4. I had to use at least half of the stamps in the Floral Essence stamp set 5. I had to case someone else's cards - I rarely do this but there are so many amazing designs out there that others have kindly shared, so why not? 6. Have fun! I managed to reach all my goals and had a wonderful afternoon creating cards. For my first two cards, I cased Kaylee Van Es' card from her April 2019 OnStage Product Spotlight Event and tweaked them. I used her background design for one card and the embossed flowers on the second one. The third card was cased from Tami Hewlett's TGIF Challenge - I chose Seaside Spray (my favourite In-Colour) and added some Wink of Stella to create some sparkle. This one is definitely my favourite card for the day! If you have any questions about techniques or products used, please ask. All products are available to order in my online shop (except for the Highland Heather ribbon - there are many other available ribbon options that would work beautifully): http://bit.ly/KristinaSU. Don't forget to use the June Host Code 96KTRFTW unless your order is over $250 so I can send you a thank you gift. Until next time, Kristina 🌸
