As soon as I saw the Beautiful Gallery Suite in the Annual Catalogue I fell in love with it. There’s a real mix of striking florals and landscapes which are so handy for all occasions.
If you’re buying the stamps you may as well get the dies in a bundle and save yourself 10%, right?
The dies in the Gallery Blooms bundle include 2 sizes of frames and I’ve used the smallest here.
I picked out the Secret Sea in the Beautiful Gallery papers to make the cardbase and frame. It’s a gorgeous deep blue/charcoal.
Although the flowers are mainly white, there are hints of cream in them so I used Very Vanilla Cardstock for the layers.
I created a bit of texture on the background with the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder.
My sample shows the paper extended above and below the framed but I gave my ladies the choice to have it just within.
Here it is again! My trusty banner from Stylish Shapes Dies. I stamped ‘For You’ from Beautiful Butterflies in Secret Sea and ‘Happy’ Birthday inside.
We finished the card with a choice of silver, gold or bronze Metallic Gems. Voila! A card for any occasion.
