Today I'm sharing a few more samples from the convention displays I did. These are all using the Raining Flowers set:
First, a pretty box:
I made it all white except for the bottom of the inside- I put a piece of Inky Indigo in there to darken up what you see through the vellum and really let those stamps pop.
A Sympathy Card:
This was a color combo I wouldn't usually use but I love how these colors look together. I think purples are growing on me!
Another card:
This card was prettier in my imagination when I was thinking about layering vellum over the stamped flowers. I wanted it to be a little more distressed looking but in the end, left it clean and crisp. I still like it but one of these days I'll have to try it again with the distress kit handy!
Well, since today is Tuesday, I've got a full house of kids to entertain! I see the park, riding bikes, and picnicking in the back yard in my future!
Also, if you have a minute, can you vote for my card in the PaperCrafts Magazine Gallery Idol contest? I've made the top 15 and would love to go through to the next round!
I hope you have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
