So Sorry card

Here is a sweet so sorry card made using the Inspiring Snapdragons stamp set and some soft colours.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the so sorry card, you will need:

Peach Pie card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Misty Moonlight card – 5⅛” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3 ¾” – for the inside – rounded upper left corner

 

I inked up the largest bloom with Fresh Freesia ink, the leaves and stem were wiped clean with my Shammy and re-coloured with an Old Olive Stampin’ Write Maker. I also added some Highland Heather to the flower spike using the Stampin’ Write Maker. I huffed on the image to re-moisten the ink and stamped onto the 5” by 3” panel of Basic White card.
