This was a fiddly card to make, but not a difficult one. The frame of flowers is from the gorgeous Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper - all I had to do was cut out a frame. Next I stamped my Statement of the Heart stamp on in Tranquil Tide ink.
The layers of Tranquil Tide and Whisper White are standard New Zealand sizes. The tricky part was the part that doesn't show up so well in a photo.
If you look carefully, you can see around the outside of the Designer Series Paper that there is a line of glitter, or shimmer. What I did was I took the Metal Edged ribbon in Whisper White, and adhered it to the back of the paper so that just the metal edge was showing. It looks amazing in real life! I found it fiddly getting the corners neat! I don't have any great shortcuts or tips on how to do this - I just kept doing it until it looked right.
Would you like to purchase one of the items I used to make this card? The Statement of the Heart stamp set is retired I'm afraid, but the rest you can buy. If you click on any of the photos below, you'll go to my online store - any day, any time!
I hope you enjoyed today's project - let me know if you give it a go!
