Saturday Night Spotlight Floral Essence Suite

Hello Stampers. Thanks for checking out my blog! I love when you come to visit and leave a comment. Tonight on my Facebook live I featured my new Saturday Night Spotlight and my stamp sets of choice tonight were the Floral Essence Suite and the Sending You Thoughts from Sale-A-Bration.

My local newspaper ran an ad today asking for 100 birthday cards for a local woman turning 100 on Feb. 5th so I thought why not send her a homemade card.

My card base is Pretty Peacock, 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4.  I then layered another Pretty Peacock that is 4 x 5/14, but I ran it through the big shot using the Subtle Embossing folder.  My DSP is from the Perennial Essence DSP and it measure 3 3/4 x 5.  Below are the stamp sets and punches I used to make this beautiful card. Also are the papers I used.



I heat embossed the flowers using white embossing powder on the Perennial Essence Vellum.  Only the top layer is embossed, and the flower is punched 3 times, and the leaves are also from the vellum.

I then added a s3/4" strip of old olive, but sponged it to add some depth to the DSP layer.  My sentiment on the outside is stamped in Blueberry Bushel and also sponged.  I used the Tailored Tag punch to flag my end.

I also used the Petal Pink 5/8" organdy striped ribbon behind my flowers.

For the inside my layer of Whisper White is 4 x 5 1/4, sponged and stamped with Blueberry Bushel. The flower is stamped off Petal Pink.



I sure do hope this wonderful lady loves her birthday card to celebrate her 100th year of life! What a feat.

If you want to send her a card let me know and I will get you the address.
