I know that the blendabilities have been discontinued due to quality issues, but I’d coloured in this image before that news broke. I used all three shades of each of cherry cobbler, calypso coral and daffodil delight to colour the tulips, adding some highlights with the colour lifter. The stems and leaves were coloured with just two shades of wild wasabi, I randomly switched between the two and I liked the effect. The newspaper was coloured with the lightest of the six nude shades. I cut out the coloured image using the ovals collection and the big shot and that’s where the card stopped for a while.
Recently I went through my Save for Later pile (I assume that you have one too?) and realized how I wanted the card to go. I abandoned the wild wasabi oval mat that I’d been toying with and instead dry embossed a piece of whisper white with the new Spring Flowers folder. I popped the tulips up with stampin’ dimensionals to both give interest and to make it easy to fix it to the now bumpy cardstock. I mounted this onto a daffodil delight base. Of course the envelope needed some attention too and I used the envelope liner framelits to cut out a liner in the backgrounds DSP in daffodil delight.
See you tomorrow,
Liz
