**** Treasure Hunt!! – look for an “egg” image in this blog post! I am giving away some of my favorite products with you today!
I wanted to create something simple, elegant and shows some spring – So I decided to create this card! I love how the card come out to be. I use Very Vanilla Card Stock as a card base, and added another Very Vanilla layer to create tone to tone effect.
Scraps & Stamps TIP:
– Do you see the circles on the background? I wanted to create subtle effect without too much colors to distract the focal point. I used Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack and Paper Piercing Tool to create this fun circles. It is so easy and quick!
– Those two beautiful blossoms are from the Secret Garden Bundle. I wasn’t a big fan of flowers before, but these are so easy to stamp and cut out with the matching framelits! I used Rose Red and Marina Mist Ink Pads for the flowers.
– Sentiment is from the Delightful Dozen Stamp Set, and I stamped it with Wild Wasabi Ink Pad. It adds a nice tone to this cream-tone card. I am falling in love with our Subtle Collections Ink Pads!!!!
