the blue is SU cool caribbean, with SU groovy guava.
can you tell i couldn't decide which pics to upload? so i did one from every angle!
the box is from
these instructions from Splitcoaststampers. i stamped the flowers on the cardstock before i scored it for folding, so that the flower would be wrapped around the edges. i love the look of the corner.
i also stamped it on SU groovy guava paper with Versamark and clear embossed it. then used my aquapen to darken the petals with SU groovy guava and really rust inks.
i made the tag on top with PTI's Fillable Frames & buttons with twine. i stamped off the center of the dahlia stamp and then stamped it again on the die cut. i wanted it to be lighter in the center so that i could stamp the sentiment. then realized that all of the cards and box lid were on PTI vintage cream paper, and i did the tag with white paper. so i darkened the edges with PTI's tea dye. i think the sentiment stands out even more that way.
i am addicted to this new Stampendous Jumbo Dahlia stamp. so i made this set for the Card Set Challenge over on the Moxie Fab blog. this also qualifies for the PPA89 challenge, Cards with Flowers.
