Shine baby, shine!
I still love Bodacious Bouquet. It’s so fresh and fun. The one thing that I always enjoy doing with this set is cutting out the flowers and popping them up. It works and is generally very pleasing to the eyes… plus they needed to shine! Can’t I make anything without glitter lately???
I wanted a shimmery, shiney look for this piece. I used my VersaMagic inks in Pink grapefruit, Pink Petunia, Pixie Dust and Aspen Mist. I also used my craft pads in Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose and Bashful Blue. The cardstock is Bashful Blue, Pretty in Pink and Shimmer white. I did use two additional stamp sets- Linen BG (on the flowers) and the Jumbo Wheel, Rough Texture. The ribbon is from May Arts. The flower are covered in Crystal Stickles. They shine like crazy!
I received some stamps from Papertreyink.com yesterday, so I hope to play with them this weekend. It’s dreary in Central PA, so I will need something else to brighten things up, I think stamping is just what I need!
Hugs,
Andrea
