Floral Fancy

Floral by steph

Stephanie Loomis’s fancy floral card has so many great elements!  I really love how the blue, turquoise and sage colors work together in this design. 

I believe the background is one of Stephanie’s digital creations.  Ü  To that she added a border of blue micro beads to the top and bottom with strips of O’So Sticky Tape.  The finishing touch is the silk flowers with micro beaded middles.

Simple Beauty

I really love this bright multi layered card by Beki Ward.  It starts with a cardstock base that has been edged with pink ink.  From there Beki builds up six more layers of papers, two patterned that have been backed by pink and one white layer that has been stamped, edged in pink ink, micro beaded with ultra fine beads and another backing of pink cardstock.  The olive ribbon pulls it all together and coordinates with the branches of the bottom pattern.

This card really brings home the old adage that when in doubt, layer, layer, layer!
