Pool Party Posy...

Hello!

It's time for another Dynamic Duos challenge and we've got some soft and pretty colours for you this week...

My sister asked me to make a card for a friend of hers that has just undergone an operation so I decided to use these colours to help me. I had also just received the Pop-Up Posies kit and wanted to use a tag and flower from it so that's where I started...

I used some Pool Party core'dinations card for the background, embossed with the honeycomb embossing folder and sanded lightly. I created a banner strip with some International Bazaar dsp and layered the tag over the top, on which I had embossed the sentiment in white (from Hopeful Thoughts). The flower is four (or maybe five... can't remember!) layers of the flower die-cuts, fastened with a brad in the centre (from the same kit). To achieve the look in the centre I tucked some petals underneath the brad and some others I bent back behind to get a bit more volume. The leaves were die-cut using the Little Leaves sizzlit die.

Make sure you stop by the other designers' blogs and see their amazing creations!

Thanks for stopping by...
