Pink and Frilly Belleek Inspired

I have a pink and frilly project to share with you today. I wanted to create another floral card layered over an embossed and brayered background.  I love the texture it adds to the card. It looks like a frilly wedding cake. You can find instructions on how to perform this technique here.

I started by brayering pink ink on to the top side of the embossing folder, inserted white paper and embossed. I punched the frame, die cut the oval center and attached to the card base using mounting tape.

I punched several white flowers from each of the three different size daisy punches, distressed each flower using a stylus and mat and then sponged on pink ink lightly to add a touch of color.  I added heavier shades of ink to the smaller layers to build up the color in the center of the flower. I added die cut floral flourishes to both corners of the frame and attached the flowers.  I added several stems of rock fern foliage around the flowers to soften the flower spray.

I applied tiny pearls to the flower centers and around on the flourishes. They are hard to see in the photos so I took a close up to show how they add to the elegance of the arrangement. You can click on any of the photos for a closer view.

I love how this turned out.  It can definitely work as a wedding card or for your best friend’s birthday.

I hope you are having a great weekend.  I appreciate you stopping by.
