Dena Rekow from the Creativity Cave shared a lovely card on her August 2nd 2021 YouTube video and I just had to CASE the card and make my own version! Here's the card and envelope together.
Here's the card. I die cut stitched rectangles from Polished Pink, Pale Papaya, Pear Pizzazz, Pool Party, Fresh Freesia and Highland Heather CS and stamped a floral image on each panel using VersaMark ink for a subtle tone on tone look. I glued the rainbow strips to a panel of Basic White CS, added a stitched zig zag border using a die from the SU! 'Basic Borders' die set and glued that to a Basic Black card base. I loved Dena's idea of stacking a number of fancy flower die cuts onto one of the solid flower die cuts, the dimension is fabulous! I added die cut leaves as well and I popped an Opal Round gem in the centre of the flower. The sentiment is heat embossed with white powder and cut with a fishtail flag die. This card will likely be a RAK card sent to the U.S. so I didn't pop any element up - the flower has great dimension already!
Here's a closer look at the flower.
Here's the inside of the card.
Here's the envelope. I added die cut stitched rectangles as an address label element to go with the stamped floral images.
What a great card to make, I'm already planning a Christmas snowflake version in blue, aqua and purple rather than a rainbow colour scheme!
