This is a little bit different for me as I am not a great lover of greens ... but now that it is finished I am quite pleased with it.
The backing papers are some that I have designed myself and I have matted and layered them onto some white card.
The Romantic Rectangles base has been layered with Fluer Di Lis Rectangles.
The Floral Ovals is layered with a Scalloped Oval and all have been separated with foam pads.
Labels 20 is on the top with the sentiment that I have heat embossed in silver and I have added in the matching "Bling" from Want2Scrap as for me this is finishing touch.
And my flowers are as always from Wild Orchid Crafts I have used a mixture of different sized Roses, Cherry Blossoms and the leaves are from a punch that I bought at a craft fair.
The Braided Ribbon is in a video tutorial and I have used green and white satin ribbon. The whole thing looks much nicer in real life....

That's a lovely card Christina. The colouring is great.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! This is so pretty. I really like the pastel shade of green. What do you do with all your cards? Do you sell them or just give them away?
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous card Christina. Your background papers are perfect and the wonderful dual coloured braid just sets the whole thing off beautifully.
ReplyDeleteStill looks amazing Christina, I love this ribbon tutorial, used it a couple of times. xxx
ReplyDeleteChristina you will never know how happy I am you posted about greens, it is the least color I use and my challenge for the DT this week is "Greens"... First I love your own designed backing papers, they are really nice! Your card is gorgeous and I am in love with that ribbon...I bet you could sell those too! hugs

Ok, Christina, I'm adding this to my "Favorite Card Ideas" list. It is gorgeous. I'm enamored of those braided ribbons you do; the soft green is so lovely in this one. I'm heading over to the tutorial to get a refresher on how you make them. You're my crafting hero!
