Grapefruit and lemon lime twist!

My card today was influenced by a card I saw in our lovely

demonstrators magazine! (Another great perk for demonstrators).

I followed the layout partly but everything else is different.

I used one of my favourite stamp sets called

Flourishing Phrases.

It comes in two sets and is full of gorgeous flowers, leaves and sentiments

and contains 18 stamps in total!

I teamed it up with Grapefruit Grove card and dsp, very vanilla card and Lemon Lime Twist.

I also added some smaller leaves from the stamp set called

Yay You

which was a Hostess only set!

(ie you host a party and receive the set of your choice)

How I made the card:

I cut some Grapefruit Grove to form the base of my card (a6 size)

I then cut a piece of very vanilla and used it to stamp my leaves etc.

I cut a piece of dsp for the centre and used it to guide me as to where

I should stamp the leaves.

I also stamped the flower 3 times so I could layer it up

and stamped the leaves in lemon lime twist, all onto very vanilla card.

The sentiment was stamped in Grapefruit grove ink.

I glued the vanilla to my card base then added the dsp across the centre.

I then felt it was a bit bare and stamped the smaller leaves

by masking off the dsp until I was happy.

Then I just layed up my flower and added the leaves and sentiment.

I love this colour combo! It looks so warm and inviting.

I would like to enter this into:

A snowflakes promise - anything goes

Inspire, Create - colour challenge (I used Grapefruit Grove)

Thanks for dropping by today.
