Lately I've been avoiding the 'coloured' cardbase and background. I don't think it was intentional, but when this card was done, it had occurred to me that it was the case!
It had been way too long since I had used the awesome Paper Doilies that I knew I just had to whip one out... That, and I came across a rogue doily when cleaning up my scraps. Call it fate :)
The background is embossed with the Honeycomb Embossing Folder and raised on the cardbase with Dimensionals. I then cut out a bunch of flowers with the Floral Fusion Sizzlit. I sponged all those bad boys lightly around the edges with Soft Sky and popped a little Soft Sky Candy Dot in there in the centre. The leaves were cut out of Pistachio Pudding using the Little Leaves Sizzlit (one of my favourites!)
Check out the challenge this week:
