Welcome everyone! Mix it up Monday is taking a birthday turn this week. With florals even! If you’ve been here you know that I gravitate toward all cute critters with a side of whatever strikes me at the moment. Well, the Waffle Flower die and stencil combos are very inviting and I really couldn’t resist the Rose Bouquet set. It’s big and beautiful. A perfect focal point to play with.
So I started my card with that using blending brushes and Lawn Fawn inks – lemonade and no. 2 pencil for the flowers with mermaid and peacock for the leaves. Then I die cut teal cardstock with the Pretty Pink Posh Pierced Scallops cover plate and splattered it with watered down peacock ink, white paint and unicorn watercolor paint.
While that was drying, I used the Pretty Pink Posh Wish Big dies and cut my sentiment out. I added gold glitter foam to an adhesive sheet and cut it out. This made it easy to remove the backing paper and adhere it directly to the florals.
When the scallop panel was dry, I glued it to a white card base and then added foam tape to the back of the florals. The dimension from the florals and the foam sentiment is perfect together.
I finished the design off with a scattering of yellow glitter enamel dots across the whole design. I love how the pops of yellow on the side break up the teal and tie in with the flowers perfectly.
