I decided to use 'Beauty' together with a flower from the "Fantasy Meadow" set UA5SP0355 also from Chocolate Baroque. This expression makes me think of all the beauty that is around us.
The background on this card was created by using Tom Bow makers, water & salt. There is a little purple in with the pinks. Both images were stamped and embossed with a dark plum EP. I added a little white & pink to the flowers with my Prisma Pencils and then used a little holograph glitter for highlighting.
The mats behind the water color background are dark plum, then bright pink and the folded card is white. I added white sheer ribbon and a flower charm before adhering it all together.
Below is a photo of the actual set of rubber stamps that Beauty comes in. You need to order an EZ Mount sheet with these, but they are easy to mount & cut. You get great value by doing a little work !
Thanks for stopping by and have a Beauty day !
