I'm a week late with this card. My good friend Colleen of Dietrich Designs was the Featured Stamper at SCS last week. I adore Colleen's work and have learned so much from her. Be sure to click on her blog name and go for a visit. You'll be glad you did.
This is Colleen's beautiful card that I chose to CASE. And because I know how much she loves hydrangeas and pearls this is what I did....

This is not the first of Colleen's cards that I've CASEd and I'm sure it won't be the last!
And since I used some snippets of white, I'll go to Pixie's Playground for a quick visit.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
Card Recipe
Stamps: Best of Flowers, Flourish Background (long retired)
Ink: Very Vanilla Craft, SU Markers (Marina Mist, Pear Pizzazz)
Paper: Whisper White
Other: Blender Pen, Very Vanilla Seam Binding, Basic Pearls
To get the dimension on the flower, I stamped it twice on a snippet and used the blender pen to spread the color and a marker to add some highlights. I cut out one entire flower intact and attached it to the flourish piece. Then I cut the other flower head and leaves out separately and attached them over the first flower with dimensionals. Hope that makes sense.
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. We've had beautiful weather and have another day added to our weekend. Very nice!
Thanks for stopping by.
Enjoy!
