Hi again! Chasing another deadline…and I am playing with the As You See It (#365) Rhapsody in Red Recipe, where all the ingredients need to be used.

I have added an Envelope for Inspired By (#374) and Polka Dots for Love Those Pretty Papers (#2602).


Here is the result:

Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Poppy Parade cardstock.
- Background Panel: (5¼” x 4”) Poppy Parade Polka Dotted patterned piece of paper from the retired Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper pack.
- Diagonal Strip: (5¼” x 4”) Red/Pink Tulip patterned piece of paper, also from the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper pack with the top right and bottom left corners trimmed – diagonal width is (2⅞”).
- Envelope: (6” x 6”) Vellum Specialty Paper, an On-Line Exclusive product, die-cut with the Envelope die from the retired Gift Card Envelope & Trims Thinlits Dies set.
- The sentiment, Time to celebrate, from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, still available but now on the Last Chance List, was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with Gold Embossing Powder.
- Envelope Insert: (3⅞” x 2⅝”) Basic White cardstock dry-embossed with the Beautiful Pattern 3D Embossing Folder, also an On-Line Exclusive product. Note: Hard to see in the photo but shows nicely in real life.
- Bling: Peaceful Poppies Sequins (retired) were added to the Envelope which was adhered in place with Tear & Tape Adhesive.
All ingredients accounted for. Tulips are one of my most favorite flowers and I look forward to celebrating when they pop up in the Spring.
