The new 2022-2023 Annual Catalog has gorgeous flowers, and, yes, some are pink, like the one on our cover! Today’s card is featuring my favorite suite, Awash In Beauty.
I love the watercolored look of the images in the suite, and this flower, leaves and stem, were cut from the Awash In Beauty Designer Paper, using Organic Beauty Dies. How easy is that!
Framed Pink Rose
I decided to frame my flower with fabulous, Awash In Beauty Designer Paper, using the largest and fourth largest Stitched Rectangles Die. To make it sturdy, I used the largest and third largest Stitched Rectangles Dies for backing, cut from Thick Basic White Cardstock.
Next, I added a trellis, cut with an Organic Beauty Die, from Vellum Cardstock. Once the trellis was glued to the frame, I attached the frame to the Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, with Foam Adhesive Strips.
The sentiment, “you are a true friend,” is from the True Beauty Stamp Set. I stamped it in Memento Black Ink, used a Harvest Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.
Three of the beautiful Iridescent Pearls were added, which are also part of the suite, along with a sprig cut from Vellum.
I was inspired by TGIF.
