Good morning! I have been away from stamping for a little while, but after reading the Flourishes Newsletter, I wanted to join the challenge this week to make a monochromatic card. The only stipulations were you could only use one color and variations of that color, and one white or cream cardstock. This card uses one of the most versatile Flourishes sets, Thinking of You. The top white panel was stamped with a small stamp from the set. The bottom panel is from the SU designer paper, Bella Birds. The center basket and border is actually two stamps arranged on an acrylic block. The colors used were pink pirouette and pretty in pink. These were framed in 3 ovals from the nestabilities line. And to add a little interest, tiny pearls were also added for a little shimmer to match the shimmer in the ribbon.
