Unique......


I hope that ypu aren't getting bored of these circular easels because I've still got a few left to show you yet!
I really like the colour pallette of this one, peachy pink & soft mint green-Yummy! I used Dovecraft Pampered Pets papers for this card. Don't let the name of these papers put you off buying them-they are lovely soft floral prints with not a kitty or a dog in sight! They suit vintage cards really well, and I went with that theme for this card.
The base is, of course, a circular twisted easel. I used two different colourways for the top & bottom portions of the card (the polka dot paper on the base of the card is by Craft Creations).A punched border with ribbon trim was adhered across the top portion of the card, and a cameo cut from green pearlised cardstock (embossed after cutting) shadowed with white cardstock was adhered over it with foam pads.
The sentiment on the base was cut from more pearlised cardstock shadowed with white, then adhered to the base with foam pads. I added 'you are' with Heidi rub-ons above the 'unique' sentiment, and a pearl heart to create the stop. A couple of WOC/Prima floral arrangements complete the card.
Carts used:
Card base-Wild Card
Scalloped circles-Winter Woodland
Plain circles-George
Cameo-Heritage
'Unique'-Wall Decor & More
Thanks for dropping by!

Hi Heather,
This is a beautiful card with lovely gentle tones, I'm not sure if this card was intended for our challenge as there's no mention of it in your posting.
Maybe you could check our Guidelines for challenge requirements.
I hope you'll be able to join us next time!
