Remarkable You

I have been meaning to play with Remarkable You for a while and today I realised that if I took off the stalk, it would look like a waterlily. And that sounded like fun.

Stampin' Up! Remarkable You and Tin of Cards

This is a set that I’m happy is making it to the new catalogue. I meant to have a watercoloured background of water or leaves but somehow that didn’t make it to the end result.

I stamped the flower from Remarkable You in melon mambo on very vanilla and then used an aquapainter to put a really pale wash of the same colour onto the flower. I then snipped it out – not as bad as it looks. Next I stamped the thanks, from Watercolour Wishes (yes again, I keep using this set!) in melon mambo and then the border comes from Tin of Cards. I love this border, I’ve only used it a couple of times so far but it creates a beautiful frame. Next I popped up my flower with dimensionals and that’s my almost one layer card done.

To make the envelope interesting, I dry embossed the envelope flap with the retired Spring Flowers TIEF. I’m getting in practice for the retirement of the envelope liners framelits!

See you tomorrow,
