I just got Stipple Hydrangea off the BST boards here on Splitcoast, so I thought I'd give the IC another go and make a happier card than the sympathy card I made yesterday. I do like how this turned out.
The background is Polished Stone with Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue, with "bloom" stamped in Chocolate Chip on top. For the side panels, I cut two 2"x5 1/4" strips of the Bashful Blue prints, marked opposite corners 1/4" from the edge and cut on the diagonal. I thought I'd only need one strip of the paper but duh, when you flip the upside-down one over, you have to flip it to the other pattern to stick with this sketch. Kind of hard to explain but it was a duh moment for me. The flower is stamped with Chocolate Chip ink on Whisper White paper, then I used sponge daubers to apply the color, and then I cut it out. NEVER AGAIN will I cut out this stamped image, those leaves and stems were a killer! But it looks good on here!
