Hello Julie




A close up showing the texture of the two layers.

Today I made this card to say hello to my Stampin Up Mummy Julie.
It seems ages since I last saw her so I thought that I would make her a card.
Colour Combo Basic Black, Whisper White and Cherry Cobbler.
The flower is punched out using the Blossom punch, then the card is distressed by curling it,
until the card separates into two layers. The flower centre is a 1"black punched circle.
A Boho Blossom punched large flower in Cherry Cobbler. then the Hello sentiment -
from is the Pennant Parade stamp-set is inked in Cherry Cobbler onto a 3/4" punched circle.
The background paper is Timeless portrait DSP and the pearls are from my stash.
Have a nice day Julie - see you soon!!
