Thoughtful Journey – Best Wishes

Welcome back!  How did the week pass by so quickly?  Studio playtime…

Starting with the Freshly Made (#661) Sketch, the Creative Colour (#166) Palette and creating a Best Wishes card suitable for a Birthday or a Wedding for Heart’s Quest Celebration of Love (#11).

Here is the result:

ARTISTICALLY INKED – THOUGHTFUL JOURNEY DSP – FMS661 – CCC166 – HQCOLCB11

Steps:

  • Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Lost Lagoon cardstock.
  • Background Panel: (4″ x 5¼”) Lost Lagoon cardstock dry-embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder.
  • Accent Mat: (3⅜” less a smidge x 4⅝”) Pretty Peacock cardstock.
  • Four Panel Split: Floral off-cuts from the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper pack leftover from another project. Cut sizes: (1” x 1”); (1” x 3¼”); (2” x 1”); and (2” x 3¼”).
  • Sentiment: Basic Beige cardstock scrap (for Crumb Cake).
    • The greeting, Best Wishes, from the retired Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink and then die-cut with the (1¼”) Stitched Circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies set.

All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch.  The sentiment was popped up with Dimensionals and a few Blue-toned pearls from Adhesive-Backed Pearl Trio were added for a bit of bling.

Such pretty paper!

  1. This is beautiful, Jolanda!!! Greens and purples together is one of my favorite color combinations! And it is generic enough to be given for a birthday or wedding!!! The textures of the background panel just add rich realistic detail for the window frame layout styling! Thanks so much for creating and sharing at HQCOLCB! — Becca
