Today I am sharing a card made for the Global Design Project – GDP #172 Challenge which this week is CASE’ing this gorgeous card designed by Shawn De Oliveira.
Making the card
I really liked the simplicity of the card and started by taking a panel of Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” and embossed the left hand side using my Big Shot and one of the lovely Petal Pairs embossing folders. I wanted to keep the effect of the leaves from Shawn’s card.

Using the Needlepoint Elements Framelit dies and my Big Shot, I die cut the long label in Soft Sea Foam and stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink and added the piece to the embossed panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I stamped the double leaf image in Granny Apple Green ink and the large flower in Gorgeous Grape ink and die cut both images using the same set of dies. The flower was added to the leaf image with the same liquid adhesive then the whole piece was adhered to the embossed panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals

I stamped the trio of small flowers in Mango Melody ink and die cut them. I also die cut some of the filigree leaves from the same die set from scrap Granny Apple Green cardstock. I tucked the small flowers and leaves around the main image using either liquid adhesive or dimensionals

The whole piece was then adhered to a panel of Mango Melody cardstock measuring 5½” by 3¾”with liquid glue and then the piece was added to a Gorgeous Grape card base with the same adhesive. To finish I added a scattering of Glitter Enamel Dots. Oh I also rounded the upper right corner of all the panels……..love a rounded corner.
I am really happy with the card and love the colour combination. I hope you like it.
