A Special Framed Florets Card

When I first saw the Fitting Florets Collection I knew that someone, somewhere would love using it for a wedding card.  I just didn't realize it would be me!  😁

Yes, I had a wedding to go to, and this ended up being the perfect collection for a special card.  My niece, Schuyler married Jeremiah on Saturday.  It was a gorgeous wedding...and I think my card was perfect:


 Done in Gold and Very Vanilla, it has an elegant feel.  The greeting is from Forever Fern, and is heat-embossed in Gold.


The flowers from Framed Florets were stamped in Versamark and heat-embossed in gold.  Then I did a watercolor wash of Blushing Bride and Soft Succulent to give the images some subtle color.  They came out SO pretty!


Layers, layers, layers!  From the bottom:  Thick Very Vanilla, cut to 5" x 10" and folded in half.  Then a layer of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper (gorgeous!!!).  A layer of Very Vanilla and another layer of gold, followed by a top layer of Very Vanilla, embossed with the Timeworn Type embossing folder.  I got a little tricky - the two top layers (gold and vanilla) have an oval cut in them; the greeting is actually stamped on the middle layer of Vanilla with the next two layers lifted with Dimensionals.  

A Distressed Gold frame (cut with the Framed Florets dies) surrounds the sentiment.  WHEW!


And of course I needed the inside to be as elegant as the outside!  A gold-embossed "congratulations" embellished with a gold flower (Chic dies).  


Wishing Sky and Jeremiah a wonderful life together, full of love and laughter, forever after!

More Fitting Florets!

 It's another day and another card using the Fitting Florets collection.  Have you enjoyed seeing some of the samples this week?

Today I have a holiday card for you.  It features all of the products in the collection:  Framed Florets and Framed & Festive stamps, the Framed Florets dies, the Fitting Florets Designer Paper and the Gold Swirl Embellishments:


I chose Cherry Cobbler and Soft Succulent as my main colors, with some Evergreen Evening thrown into the mix.  I started with the greeting - stamped in Cherry Cobbler and again with Versamark (the Stamparatus helps keep the images perfectly aligned), then heat-embossed with clear embossing powder.  


Look at those shiny letters!


The flowers and leaves from Framed Florets were stamped and colored with Stampin' Blends, then cut with the dies.  I also cut a Cherry Cobbler frame with one of the frame dies.


The background designer paper was colored to match - the white berries on the paper were colored with Cherry Cobbler Blends -- neat trick!

And be sure to check out the little Gold Swirl - so pretty!

The Fitting Florets Collection is on sale now.  Be sure to order early, as the Framed & Festive stamps, the DSP and the Gold Swirls are only available until the supply runs out!
